Answers: Does It mean to put something on the side of your plate to enhance the presentation of the dish?

yes! you got it! a garnish is a decoration (usually edible) that is sprinkled, laid on, put on, a dish to make the entree more presentable to the person eating the select dish. and resturantuers use it to make themselves look better then they are in reality. haha.

yes its to help with presentation .

Yes, something to decorate the dish, either sprinkled on top of it, something set beside it on the plate, or sprinkled on the plate. Decoration.

yes, an example would be sprigs of rosemary or parsley, or green onions, or curls of carrot, lemon twist, etc..

Garnish is either something on the plate or the food to decorate it with, or it is a cooking instruction telling you to put a sauce or a seasoning on top of something, but not drenching it in said ingredient.

"Place the fish over the rice and garnish it with hollandaise sauce and diced dill."

Yes, that's exactly what it means. It can also mean to decorate the food in some way.

Decoration

Garnish means - make it look 'pretty' or attractive or better or more presentable or just nice.

to enhance a dish before serving with an edible decoration or accompaniment, which is appealing to the eye and complements the flavors of the dish.

garnish means you add sprigs of parsley whole to fish to make it look presentable and give it a nice look, and eat it if you wish

Yes. We eat with our eyes before our mouths... so its just to help with the presentation.

yeah. it does

Yeah, garnish is just something to enhance the visual presentation of the dish. The garnish can be edible and part of the dish as well.

That's exactly what it means..........like the little sprigs or parsley and slices of orange on the plate, just fill up the plate more and make it more appealing to the eye....We do, afterall, eat with our eyes first..........
