Instruction manual
1
When choosing fruits for slicing, be especially careful about their appearance. Because the fruits will lie on the table in their "pristine" form for several hours, and they must pass this test with honor. That is, fruits should have as little damage on the skin as possible, and be very fresh. So, for slicing, we choose the freshest, ripe, but at the same time dense and elastic fruits.
2
Be sure to check the time of preparation of the slices. It is best to cook it just before the guests arrive, so that the chopped fruits should have as little contact with the air as possible. To prevent darkening of the fruit, prepare a lemon cut in half to sprinkle the fruit already sliced.

To make the fruit cut thinly, you will need a very sharp knife. Therefore, prepare the knives in advance, it is better if there are several. Because when working with fruits, knives become very dull on their skin very quickly, and if we just change the knives to sharper ones, instead of constantly sharpening, we will save cooking time. This is very important if you need to cook a lot of slices.

Fruits can be cut into thin slices, slices, cubes. The serving option may be as follows: circles of apples and oranges can be laid out at the bottom of the dish, spiraling them into the "turret", leaving a hole in the middle of the dish. In this hole we insert pieces of hard pears or apples cut into strips or slices.

There is another option for slicing fruits - curly. You can cut fruits in this way using special grater shredders, which are sold in special stores. Thanks to special devices, even flowers and other beautiful figures can be cut. This decorative cut is called carving.
