THE IOWA HOJJ!EMA!l.ER 7 The Art of Garnishing Foods By MILDRED B. ELDER G OOD pictures deserve good frames, and the success of dinners depend largely upon the way in which they are put 011 to the table. Linens, glassware, china and silver all are necessary ac­ companiments and in the arrangement of foods in an attractive way, the artistic taste of the hostess is shown. In the modern table service garnishing forms an important part, for the eye must be saitsfied as well as the palate and the most delicious dish may not be enjoyed if its appearance is against it, therefore dainty ways of serving foods have a usefulness beyond their aesthetic value. A poor appetite is often tempted by a tastefully garnished dish when the same food carelessly served would seem quite unpalatable. Good food attractively served and garnished adds much to our sense of well being. One does not have to spend much time, money or materials doing it. Just a little care-that's all! It is a good thing to remember that a garnish is in reality just what the word implies-a trimming. It puts on Even the Plainest Foods Can Be Madtl Alluring With a Touch of the finishing touch that makes all the Decorativeness. difference in the world in the effect of a dish.

  • Ingredients Equipment
    Ingredients Equipment 1 cup long-grain white rice, uncooked Measuring cup(s) and spoons 2 cups whole milk Colander 2 cups heavy cream 1 medium and 1 large saucepan 1/3 cup sugar 1 stirring spoon and 1 slotted spoon 2 tablespoons unsalted butter Zester or grater 1 cinnamon stick (extras for garnish if desired) Whisk Zest of 1 lime* Small bowl 2 large egg yolks Serving bowl(s) (either 1 large or 6 small individual Ground cinnamon nonmetal bowls) Ground nutmeg (optional) Plastic wrap or aluminum foil * In Mexico, limón refers to a small, green fruit, similar to the limes found in the United States. However, in many other Spanish-speaking countries, it refers to the larger, yellow lemon. You can use either limes or lemons in arroz con leche. Both taste delicious! Note: This recipe requires the use of a hot stove and should be made with adult assistance and supervision. 1. POUR the rice into a colander and rinse it with cold water. Thoroughly strain the rice to remove excess water. 2. HEAT the milk to boiling in a medium saucepan. Stir in the rice. When the milk has reached a boil again, cover the saucepan and reduce the heat to low for 15 to 20 minutes. The rice should simmer until most, but not all, of the milk is absorbed. Continue to the next step, but take the rice off the heat when it finishes cooking. 3. While the rice is cooking, COMBINE the heavy cream, sugar, butter, cinnamon stick, and lime zest in a large saucepan and bring the mixture to a simmer.
