    As a chef of 16 years, I must say this is one of the best plating videos I have seen! Great job! ❤

      I read this several times as planting and thought you were mocking home for his use of microgreeens.

    Thank you!! I took a handful of culinary classes and this was much more succinct on explaining plating, definitely found some new things I wanna use! Not a second of this video was wasted either, a tell-tale sign of a video creator who knows what they're doing. 10/10 my guy, you got yourself another subscriber!

    One exercise that I like to do to practice plating is to plate ONE or TWO items at most. Get something like a raw and a cooked carrot. You’d be amazed at how many directions you can go in. It forces you to be creative.

    My plates are going to look amazing from now on. I loved the video. You described every "I don't know what it is but it's so cool" that I see on every fancy restaurant dishes. Good job.

    I am so glad I watched this video! I am looking forward to some more classes on plating techniques. Loving the tips and tricks and would appreciate some cooking ones too. My mom didn’t cook so I appreciate the ones that seem obvious if your mom or dad taught them to you but aren’t so obvious if you are trying to figure it out on your own.

  • @ememe1412
    @ememe1412 2 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    It's never been the plating that's the biggest stumbling block. It's the speed, precision and consistency for the pace of service one is doing. Always been the case in professional cooking.

    Thank you! I just discovered a love of cooking and started experimenting with presentation. Loved the analogy as the food as paint. I feel that simplicity is also key but extremely difficult to do.

      That's a great idea.

  • @thehilaryglow
    @thehilaryglow ปีที่แล้ว +3

    The negative/blank space is actually too big in portion compared to the ingredients on the plate. I would place the food a little bit more in the middle (the edge of the outer third) or just in the center. The contrast between the clean black plate and the colorful green dish do enough justice in appearing appealing to the eye.

    • @AdamWitt
      @AdamWitt  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I'm not sure I agree with that. I think perceived value is important and that we "eat with our eyes first," but at the end of the day, if the food doesn't taste delicious then what's the point? Ya know?

  • @ActualHumanMigz
    @ActualHumanMigz ปีที่แล้ว

    To expound further on "eating with your eyes":
    A study from 1977 by the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition showed that the body will more willingly receive nutrients from food that looks more appealing, hence "eating with your eyes", and this all takes place from the moment you walk into a restaurant. Your brain takes note of other people's dishes, the presentation. Before they even get their plate to the table, the guest should already have the idea in their head that they're going to have a beautiful plate.
