Garnishing Techniques
Lemon and Lime Twists
Thinly slice lemons and limes, and cut into the centre of each slice. Twist the ends in opposite directions and add to your salads or drinks.
Mushroom Flutes
With a pairing knife, make inverted 'V' shaped cuts around the mushroom cap and place them in the dish.
Tomato Roses
Start cutting the tomato at the bottom end, and work your way to the top, spiraling all the way around. Form the rose by rolling the strip into an edible blooming flower, and secure the base with a toothpick.
Onion Brushes
Remove most of the green portion from the green onions. Make slashes at both ends of the onion to make fringes. Place in ice cold water to curl the ends.
Make every meal a culinary Indian feast for both, vision and flavour.
