Finishing and Plating Techniques

Gathers the finishing and plating techniques used to complete a dish for service, including garnishing, saucing and composed plating arrangements, covering the final steps that shape a dish's presentation rather than its core cooking method. These final steps are judged by restraint as much as skill, since an overworked plate can obscure a dish's own ingredients, and the same principles apply whether the dish is a simple home meal or a multi-course tasting menu course.
