University College at TTU    Lesson Thirteen

Introduction -- Chapter 28 -- Chapter 35 -- Chapter 36 -- Lesson Assignments

Lesson Thirteen covers hors d'oeuvre and food presentation. Chapter 28 discusses the handling and preparation techniques used when designing hors d'oeuvre. It is important that hors d'oeuvre are properly prepared and of the highest quality, since they typically whet the appetite of consumers and set the tone for the rest of the meal.

Food presentation also sets the tone for meals at food service establishments. Thoughtful presentation involves careful planning and attention to detail in the arrangement of foods, improving the appeal and appearance of the plate or the buffet. Chapters 35 and 36 describe methods for presenting foods on the plate and in a buffet setting.
