I've always had the goal of making my food presentation look artistic. I learned from a lot of Youtube, Instagram, and Pinterest, about plating ideas.

My challenge so far is the limited tools and ingredients for food. I didn't give up on that. Instead, I feel challenged and have to get used to thinking creatively about it.

I am happy to proceed. I enjoy my time with my processes in the kitchen.

I consider white plates as a canvas to me, and various sauces are the coloring.

This time I will tell you about my experience of failing with plating. I'm excited to be able to try something new to see what the results will be.


Playing with Dragon Fruit Sauce

I tried plating with dragon fruit sauce. I applied it with an irregularly scattered dotted shape.

At first, it looked good. Not too bad. But then I thought about changing the shape.

I move the plate so that the dragon fruit sauce dots appear to be deformed and melted.


The final result

I feel that the result is not as good as the first try. The result is too weird in my opinion.

But I need another opinion to judge my work. It feels good to be able to play in the world of the art of plating even though I'm still an amateur.

Look at the sauce motif I use for the plating of this dessert. I know the color looks bad because I used the same colored sauce as the dessert.

What do you think about my plating this time? I appreciate your thought!

Hahaha. This is an abstract piece!! This will need some interpretation!
You have the creativity to do this artistic thing!

But I would never have the time or thought of doing this nice design! You are the artist!

Just do what you love and you will find the pleasure :)

You're an artist with food and each and everyday I'm always amazed by your creativity. Wow

I just tried new thing everyday and I feel better mood with food :)

Wow,... I love it when people try new things and this is creatively amazing

You are creative people too 🤗

I think you did a great job.
Artistic plating is key to a successful food presentation.
Nice post

I tried my best to make my plate more artistic but often failed :)

Thanks for your support :)

A thicker sauce of a different colour would look better

I agree with you. I need more ingredients :)

Thanks for your great feedback. :)

Have you looked at making home-made syrups or even using corn-meal?

I often make desserts or sauces with cornstarch and it can make the sauce thicker. But in that case, I didn't use cornstarch that was out of stock :)
