A properly served table is of great importance at receptions and celebrations. No less important is the design of dishes, snacks, and cuts. Sausage and cheese are a must at any gala dinner. Correctly decorated cheese and meat plates will add sophistication to the set table.
The main thing is a sharp knife
Professional chefs are specially taught to perform various cuts, but everyone can cut sausage and cheese beautifully with certain knowledge and skills. The beautiful view of the dish pleasantly surprises the guests and raises the appetite. The main rule for cutting is a sharp thin knife. An unsharpened cutter can ruin the product; it is impossible for them to cut a really thin slice. Torn edges, rough middle will never look aesthetically pleasing.
Both products are cut with plates of about a millimeter. Various shapes can be made from cut pieces and plates: flowers, envelopes, rolls. Small twigs of greens are sometimes placed in sausage tubes.
The rules for serving the snack plate determine the order of the layers: lower meat, upper cheese. The combination of boiled, boiled-smoked, uncooked smoked, dry sausages gives room for creativity. The same is possible with cheeses.
Material for creativity
It is probably impossible to say for sure how beautiful it is to cut the sausage. The easiest way is to cut thin circles, laid according to the pattern of "bricks" or "tiles". A boiled sausage can be folded into a flower. Roll each plate into a tube, put on a plate in the form of a bud. Decorate the edges with herbs. Combining several varieties of meat product, you can arrange a whole bouquet with different colors. An interesting option for sausage snacks is the butterfly. For cooking, cut off 5 thin plates. One is folded with a tube - this will be a "little body", 2 others are fanned, fastening the lower part with an auxiliary toothpick - the wings, 2 more also with an accordion - the fenders. Attach all parts to the "calf" using a canapé stick, remove the toothpick. Thin strips of cheese make an ornament in the recesses of the wings. Eyes are shaped with thick ketchup. Thus, the sausage "butterfly" has turned out.
Besides sausages, cheese products are used. There are many tips on how to cut cheese beautifully. The easiest way is to use thin, small square or triangular slices. Varieties with large holes are used to make the main platform for creativity. Small pieces of vegetables and fruits can be inserted into the holes. Thinly sliced classic cheese can be rolled into various shapes, creating a flower arrangement. With the help of cookie cutters, you can cut out all kinds of figures: butterflies, diamonds, Christmas trees, houses, etc., which will favorably emphasize the festive table.
