We're doing our first KCBS contest this weekend, so I've never had to buy garnish before. How much parsley should I buy if the plan is to do the typical "putting green" style box?
Thanks!
Thanks!
2 to 3 bundles per box depending on the quality of the parsley. Publix has the best quality locally.
Better to have too much instead of too little.
Ya, I don't think I'll be going in there with 3 bunches of parsley. I'd end up without garnish in 3 of the boxes!One well known competitor told me he uses 3 bunches of parsley & one head of romaine to build all four boxes. Now, I'm sure he uses 3 large bunches; however, that's cutting it too close for me. I used 8 bunches & 2 head last comp we did and we even used some for a 5th category at that comp. That amount seemed to work for us.
