Greens are a healthy product containing vitamins and minerals. Decorating dishes with herbs is one of the easiest ways to make a dish beautiful and healthy.

To decorate a dish with greens, it is not necessary to have a rich imagination, the most ordinary homemade cutlets laid out on lettuce leaves will already look great. Fantasy can be healthy if you want to decorate your child’s dish with greens, then you will have to try, each time inventing something new.

Before you come up with decorating dishes with greens, make sure that the greens you have are fresh.

Tips for decorating dishes

Spectacular serving of a dish is an art. Distribute food on a plate in height, not in width. For example, a beautiful slide or a turret;
Combine contrasting colors, sizes and textures: crispy with soft, red with green, etc.;
Observe the measure: the plate should not look empty, but you do not need to fill it completely. Small portions look more appetizing and encourage you to enjoy the process;
Adhere to minimalism in the decoration of the dish: elegant touches should only emphasize its beauty, and not become an independent meal;
Observe the harmony of food with the background: for hot dishes, it should be warm, for cold dishes — cold.
