Salad decoration

Serving the dish is half the battle. And even if you are preparing a simple and uncommon salad, decorating it correctly, you can depict the most unusual and original dish. The main thing is to adhere to the theme of a holiday or event, for example, for the New Year, you can decorate salads in the form of an animal, whose year is coming, in the form of a tree or a snowman. Or create unique salads for your birthday, giving them the shape of a festive cap, cake or gift wrapping. For children, you can make cats and fish, and even a typewriter. On March 8, make a salad in the form of a bouquet or just a flower: tulip, rose or lilac.

To decorate a salad, even the simplest one, take, for example, a vegetable one, you can use either the same vegetables, or take an original and tasty splash, in our case it will be cottage cheese, garlic and herbs. The dish may consist of bell peppers, cucumbers and tomatoes, but the decorations will be invented from cottage cheese mixed with chopped herbs and garlic passed through a press. We form balls and arrange them around the perimeter of the plate, here you have an ordinary snack with a piquant touch.

Pineapple and chicken, cheese and onion salad can be served right in the fruit itself. Just take out the pulp, put it on the dish itself, and leave the peel as a decoration for the salad - the boat. Place the salad directly into the pineapple trough and garnish with herbs on top.

Mimosa salad is simple and familiar to most. But here's how original and new it will look if you plant a sprig of white flowers on top. Such decoration of salads is very unusual, since we will make snow-white flowers from a boiled egg, or rather protein and yolk. Cut the yolk into circles - this will be the middle, and for the flower itself, use the tops of the egg white, making it sharp jagged corners. Place the parsley, along with the branch, and build flowers around it, placing a round yolk on a white base.

Even the usual festive Olivier can be beautifully transformed with fresh apples and cucumbers, eggs and Korean carrots. Here, as the famous film says: "There is also such a thing as ingenuity that is important." Therefore, all products should be combined in taste and theme with the main ingredients of the dish. Cut apples into thin half slices, cucumbers - like into rolls. Fold a circle of cucumbers by folding them in half. In the middle, we will make a swan from apples: just fold the wings from half rings, and the neck from a separate piece of apple, which can be obtained by cutting the fruit in half and leaving a root on it. Now, as in the previous salad, we will make flowers from eggs, only in the middle we put not the yolk, but a few Korean carrots.

Calla lilies can be made from cheese simply and easily, as a decoration for a salad of absolutely anyone. We just cut the cheese thinly into squares, then fold the pieces, like a glass for seeds, as they used to make from paper, put it on a salad, add a yellow center of pepper, eggs, and lay out the green onion stalks. The middle can be made black - from olives, green - from olives.

You can also make flowers from a plum tomato. Excellent tulips are obtained if the fruit itself is cut into four parts by a few centimeters on top, put on a salad, made stems and leaves from parsley or dill. But lilac can be depicted from melted cheese, simply grated on a coarse grater in the form of a bunch of these flowers, and adding a drop of food coloring.

We bring to your attention a selection of beautiful decoration of festive salads. Such beauty certainly will not disregard and praise any guest.

Date added: 2013-11-15 04:57:45

So, we cook salads regularly. And it's important to remember that an original salad dressing will draw the eyes of your guests and family members like a magnet. This article contains some very simple ways to decorate salads. These methods do not take much time, but the effect is amazing. Your salads will be devoured by the eyes. In this list, we have collected only the simplest salad dressing ideas that even a child will surely cope with, and at the same time, these are very interesting ideas. So - sharpen your knife sharper and let's get started.

1. HOW TO DECORATE SALAD - OLIVE SPIDERS

Putting such a spider on your salad will surprise everyone. As you can see from the picture, it is very simple to prepare it. You only need a few olives. Cut one olive in half and one of the halves becomes the body of the spider. Cut the other half lengthwise into strips - here are the legs. The spider has eight legs. Such spiders need to be planted on salads with a uniform surface, for example, I put them on a salad of chicken and walnuts (300 gr. Boiled chicken fillet, 200 gr. Peeled walnuts, mayonnaise, salt and black ground pepper. Skip chicken and nuts through a meat grinder, season with mayonnaise, salt and pepper). Do you see how clearly these spiders are visible on the surface of the salad? And not only spiders can be made from olives. These round black berries are so similar to black eyes ...

2. HOW TO DECORATE SALAD - BASKETS OF BOOKED EGGS

Boil eggs hard-boiled. Take a sharp knife (not grooved) and a peeled egg in your hand. Make such oblique cuts as in the photo around the perimeter (I would say "along the equator") eggs and divide the egg into 2 halves. One half (like a basket) can be filled with green peas or sweet corn or herbs, and the other half can be filled with chopped yolk mixed with finely chopped dill.

3. HOW TO DECORATE SALAD - LILIES FROM PLATES OF PROCESSED CHEESE

You will need several slices of processed cheese (the kind that is put in cheeseburgers, each cheese is wrapped separately in cellophane) and boiled carrots. A little more dill and parsley for decoration. So, boiled carrots need to be cut into long stripes - these will be the pistils of our flower. And make the lilies themselves from curd cheese squares rolled up "into small bags". Insert the carrot pistils inside, and the green stems of dill or parsley will be the thick stems of our lilies. Around these stems and need to wrap our "bags" of cheese.

4. HOW TO DECORATE SALAD - PAPER CLOTH FORM

The idea is simple: you need to cut a stencil out of paper in some interesting shape. For example, a star, or a bell, or some geometric figure, a circle, for example. Put this stencil on the salad and cover it with a uniform color, for example, with grated yolks, or finely chopped herbs, but it should be a color contrasting to the background of the salad so that you can clearly see it. Then remove the paper, and our drawing will remain on the salad. Only if you are not an artist, and in general are not very experienced in these matters, it is better to work with a really simple, uncomplicated figure, for example, a star. Everyone will recognize it for sure, and you can decorate it around the edges with, for example, pomegranate seeds to make the boundaries of the star brighter, clearly outlined. I have a cake in the photo (I decorated the cake with a star), not a salad, but the idea itself from the photo is clear :)

5. HOW TO DECORATE SALAD - ROSE FROM TOMATO

The tomato rose is a classic. Such a rose can be planted on almost any salad - the tomato is quite neutral and goes well with many salads. It is especially important to decorate vegetable summer and spring salads with such a tomato rose. With such salads, you cannot make a perfectly flat surface on which you can draw whatever you want - they are a shapeless, uneven mass. Plant a tomato rose in the middle of such a salad - and the salad is decorated. It is clear that the first time you will not get a rose from a tomato, but sooner or later your rose will become like a real one, the main thing is practice. There are two ways to make a rose from a tomato, for both you need a very sharp knife. The first way is to simply peel off all the skin from the tomato with a spiral and form a rose from this skin. The rose from the peel is going straight by itself, the main thing is not to tear it, the tape of the peel must be whole. And the second way - we just cut the tomato into very thin slices, without cutting it to the end, and slightly displace, turn these slices. The second method is a little more complicated, but it involves the whole tomato. In any case, from now on, if you add a fresh tomato to your salad, and you usually peel off the peel from it, now you know what to do with this peel ... you can make a rose and decorate the salad!

6. HOW TO DECORATE SALAD - COOKED VEGETABLE FIGURES, CUT IN BISCUIT FORMS

These molds are available at any hardware store. Here is such a mold, as in the photo, it costs only ten rubles. And the material from which you can take any can be cut from boiled sausage or ham, from boiled beets, from boiled carrots, from boiled potatoes (unless it is a potato with a low starch content, that is, it does not fall apart at all and does not boil soft during cooking , but retains its shape well). If there is no such mold at hand, use glasses, glasses ... for example, you can make rings by first cutting a large circle with a glass from a plate of boiled beets, and then a small one inside. Pay attention to the photo below: in order to lay out individual portions of salad, it is convenient to have just such a mold that does not have a bottom. With such a mold, the salad can be shaped perfectly round, already on the plate.

7. HOW TO DECORATE A SALAD - MAYONNESE NET AND CHIPS PETALS

A mayonnaise net can be used to decorate a salad very simply and quickly. It is necessary to make a very thin hole in the bag with mayonnaise with scissors, so that the bag with mayonnaise is like a pastry bag, from which you, squeezing the mayonnaise, can draw anything with mayonnaise (even write the text). But do not rush with the text, it may not work, but the net of mayonnaise will always work. In addition, you can put red caviar or greens, or other colorful greens-fruits-vegetables in the mesh cells, in a checkerboard pattern, and it will turn out very beautifully. And the chips around the perimeter of the salad look like petals. And something, but chips, will be snapped up in the first place :)

8. HOW TO DECORATE SALAD - OLIVE PALMS

String olives onto a skewer or toothpick. Decorate the tops of the palms with herbs (dill or green onions) and stick these palms into your salad. Original and quite simple.

9. HOW TO DECORATE SALAD - CUT COLEIDOSCOPE PATTERNS FROM PEAS, BERRIES OR CORN

In fact, half a can of canned corn, or pineapple rings, or a few green peas are enough to make a rather original, eye-catching design - a pattern on a salad. You can simply chop the radishes very thinly and come up with an interesting pattern from these circles. Pomegranate berries are also very good material for laying out a picture. Pomegranate goes especially well with chicken salad. For example, simply boiled chicken fillet mixed with mayonnaise and laid out on a flat plate can be garnished with pomegranate seeds for a delicious salad that everyone will love.

10. HOW TO DECORATE SALAD - STRIPES OF MULTI-COLORED BULGARIAN PEPPER OR CUCUMBER MADE IN THE FIGURE

There is no particular need to describe this method - and so everything is clear. Even flowers, even a human face, even simple geometric shapes: all this is easily assembled from simple bright colorful bell peppers, cut into stripes.

This second pattern is, of course, much simpler, but everything is in your hands. You can use bright yellow, bright green and bright red bell peppers. This colorful trio will brighten any salad just by the brightness of its colors.
