Much has changed over the last 15 years on the world’s restaurant scene. On the one hand classic rules are broken, while on the other simple rustic food is championed. The home cook is tempted by the buzz of new ingredients, but a little wary of how to present them.
In this book we have set out to give you the rules of food presentation, or styling, that will allow you to become an artist in your own home. Because that is what a true cook is — an artist who has the skills to allow the freedom of imagination and the ability to translate this to the plate.
Let this book guide you on your presentation journey. On the following pages you’ll find all you need to know — from choosing your style of plate and table settings to sourcing the ingredients themselves. Whether you are looking for an interesting way to present everyday vegetables, or a flamboyant sugar display to adorn a dessert. The Techniques Directory has a wealth of food styling ideas for you to choose from that will wow any diner.
In the course of a meal, each dish should herald the next, building the excitement before the grand finale of the dessert. With an understanding of the food-presentation formulas that work, you will be able to create beautifully-presented dishes to tempt and excite your guests’ palates. Enjoy!
1 Roll the pastry out to an even thickness. Transfer it to a baking sheet and chill for 10 minutes in the refrigerator. Then lay the pastry out on a well-floured surface and, using a small sharp knife, cut into strips of your required width. We have cut 2/5 inch (1 cm) wide strips.
2 Lay the first two strips in the corner of your work surface, the first running horizontally, and the second overlapping the first at a right angle, approximately 4/5 inch (2 cm) away from one end.
3 Now lay the third strip in line parallel to the first, but so the end is over the second strip. To lay the fourth strip, lift up the second strip and tuck the fourth strip under. Repeat the technique with the remaining strips. As the lattice builds, fold back every other strip to lay the new strip down, making sure that it lies in the opposite form to the one next to it.
4 Build your lattice to the size required then neatly cut out a circle using a cutter. If making a larger lattice, use your baking pan to check the size and cut around the edges with a sharp knife. Apply the lattice top and bake until golden. The pastry lattice tops can be made in advance and stored in the refrigerator.
1 Select fresh firm fruit, such as raspberries, strawberries, mango or peach. Use a soft brush to brush off any dust or debris. Leave the hulls on the strawberries and cut the mango and peach into slices.
2 Meanwhile, melt the chocolate in a non-metallic dish over a pan of barely simmering water. Do not allow the dish to touch the water or become too hot, since the chocolate will seize and become unusable.
3 Take a piece of fruit on a dipping fork and dip into the chocolate, coating half and leaving half bare to show the color of the fruit.
4 Set a wire rack over a tray of piece of paper towel to catch the chocolate drips and make for an easier clean-up. Set the dipped fruit on the wire rack to drain and cool. Store in an airtight container and use within one day.
