Garnishes

Gourmet Garnishes
Mickey Baskett
Aimed for home cooks more than professionals, this book is full of creative ways to dress up you plate. All the little tricks familiar from hotel buffets are here, like radish roses and strawberry fans, as well as things you never realized were so easy like sauces 'feathered' on dessert plate, fried herbs, and marzipan fruits. Plenty of pictures guide you through the process. Colour photos. Softcover, 128 pp. $21.95.
