Pastry brush
Silicone or natural-bristle brush for applying egg wash, melted butter, and glazes. Silicone handles heat better and is easier to clean; natural bristles hold more liquid. Rinse immediately after use — dried egg is hard to remove.
Used for
- egg wash on pastry
- glazes on bread
- butter on rolls
- greasing pans
In the kitchen
- rinse immediately after use
- dab, don't drag, to avoid tearing delicate pastry
