Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

When plating food, the portion size of accompaniments should not be ignored. It is important to balance the portion sizes of both the main dish and accompaniments for an aesthetically pleasing and balanced meal.
- Deciding on one element to give visual height helps in creating an attractive presentation by drawing attention to a key part of the plate.
- Considering main dish and its portion size ensures the meal is satisfying without being overly heavy or light.

Thus, the correct answer is that portion size of accompaniments should not be ignored.
