Tips & Tricks from Rhiceneth
Find a good catering theory book - it has a lot of useful information, portion sizes, seasonal availability of produce and a variety of tips and tricks for preparing food. If you plan on doing a lot of pies or tarts either purchase in bulk pastry sheets or get a good pasta maker - it can help you roll nice foil tin sized pastry sheets. For any event - make small purchases and store - especially when you see it on special.
