Tuile (cooking technique)

 Tuile is the wafer thin, crunchy decoration that you see on food. Tastes great. 

"A tuile IPA (key): /twiːl/ is a baked wafer, French in origin, generally arced in shape, that is made most often from dough (but also possibly from cheese), often served as an accompaniment of other dishes.[1] Tuile is the French word for tile, after the shape of roof tiles that the arced baked good most often resembles.[2] Tuiles are commonly added as garnishes to desserts such as panna cotta or used as edible cups for sorbet or ice cream.[3]"
