It is being widely believed that people eat with their eyes first. Unlike most popular notions, this actually may be true! We know for sure that if a dish is not appealing to eyes, in many cases it would not induce us to partake that dish.
This makes food plating and presentation a crucial aspect of the food service industry, especially in this age of increasing numbers of discerning consumers in the industry.
Creative and thought fulplating , undoubtedly, enhances the appeal of the food. Focusing on presentation also gives ample opportunity to Chefs to showcase their artistic side and play around with elements beyond the usual ingredients.
While there aren't any fixed rules or conventions when it comes to ‘correct’ plating, in fact there is no ‘correct’ plating as such, there are several important concepts and ideas which the Chefs should ideally keep in mind while presenting their dishes for their guests.
They say colours, material and texture of tableware, edible flowers…in fact every single detail matters in making an impressive presentation of dishes. One needs to take into consideration the balance and texture of each ingredient and how it plays into the composition of the plate, in order to make a memorable presentation.
Here we talk to some outstanding Chefs across the country and find out how they have mastered the art of food plating.
