Edible art with Plate-it for your festive table!

The holiday season is the perfect time to impress at the dining table, and with Plate-it, you’ll leave your guests in awe! It’s all about presenting your food beautifully, and with just a little effort, you can bring Michelin-level elegance to your festive table. The best part? While it looks sophisticated, it’s surprisingly easy to achieve! Here are 3 tips to plate your dishes like a pro:

Christmas and New Year

1. Crispy flower shapes in the deep fryer

What do you need? Your FRITEL deep fryer, a Plate-it Buñuelos mold, and a dash of creativity. Fill the mold with batter, place it in the fryer, and within minutes, you’ll have a crunchy, edible flower that’s the perfect centerpiece for your plate. This crispy garnish instantly elevates your presentation with minimal effort.

2. Elegant Dots and Stripes with Sauces
Less is more, as they say! A few small dots or an elegant stripe of spicy beet sauce or smooth carrot purée can add a chic touch to your plate. The trick? Symmetry is key! For stripes, aim for a single, smooth motion – one confident sweep. It doesn’t have to be perfect; a slightly casual look adds to the charm!

3. Herb Powders for a Splash of Color
Add a pop of color to your plate with herb powders like dried parsley, chives, or beet powder. Sprinkle a thin line along the edge of the plate, create a soft circle around your dish, or add small mounds of alternating colors. This subtle touch not only enhances the presentation but also adds a modern and stylish feel to your dish. It’s an easy accent that takes your plate to the next level!
