Easy tips to plate like a Chef!

Here is a list of tips that will help you make the difference in your culinary presentations! If you want to know how to plate like a professional, the answer is below!

If you want to have a nice presentation of your products, you need to consider the choice of your plate with your table. It is important to create a harmony between the plates and the color of your tablecloth.

The detail that makes the difference is to add accent pieces on your table or directly on the plate itself. A container for sauce is a good idea!

We advice you to use a plate of the same color. Prints on your plate will tend to crush your ingredients. The easiest color to use is white. However, using plain colors can be an ideal solution depending on the food chosen. Desserts are always welcomed on a colorful plate.

We suggest you to take into account the size of the plate. If you want to plate like a professional, the dish presented should be proportional with the size of the plate.

In order to present your food in the most elegant way, we advise you to create small portions. Too large a portion will overwhelm your plate

To deal with the contrast between symmetry and asymmetry is the best way to have beautiful result.

Use spices! The Caractere Collection comes in a range of warm colors, also inspired from the color of spices. Spices will definitely give style to your dish!
