Our Tupperware Organization holds several Cooking Schools each year. There are usually 6 - 8 tables where a consultant is doing a demo of a particular product and a dish made with that product. It's a fun way to show off what's new in Tupperware and give guests a chance to taste some great food.
At the last one, I was asked to demo our FridgeSmart
® Containers and Chef Series
™ Pro Knives. I had a blast looking at garnishing websites and tried to duplicate a few them. I certainly need more practice, but the result was adequate, at least. I do have to admit to being proud of that lobster. I decided at the last minute to do this one and didn't have the exact fruit on hand that was in the example online. Improvise, improvise!
I've used a few of these garnishes since and they do "guild the lily" for a special meal! Do you use garnishes when serving kitchen creations?

That lobster is wonderful and so is the flower! No, I don't tend to do a lot of decorating for the table with food, but I'm sure that my grandsons would think it was cool.
ReplyDeleteOh goodness, how fabulous! Thought for a moment it was actually a lobster. Love the red pepper flowers! You are so creative Chris - and I love seeing the pic of you with your team.
ReplyDeleteThese busy days I'm lucky to get the meal on a plate let alone garnishing, sigh!
