up next: pasta! pasta was a little difficult. we started out with a few selections of pasta – for some plates they build everything on top of mash potatoes so that it fills the plate more and give it some volume without the layers of pasta underneath. for my past (above) i didn’t use any mash potatoes but i did move the pasta on and off the plate about four different times! who would have thought plating pasta would be so difficult?
check out pasta styled by nancy buchanan of a communal table (left) and melissa gardener (right). i think melissa used some mash potatoes on hers but not sure about nancy did.
