Pastry Brush

A pastry brush is used to spread butter or sauces on cooking foods. Similar to a simple paintbrush, a pastry brush can help baste a bird, brown biscuits, and slather on barbeque sauce. In the kitchen or on the grill, a pastry brush has secured a firm place in cooking history.

Pastry brushes are crafted from a variety of materials including synthetic hair, nylon, and silicone. Silicone pastry brushes have now become the most popular due to their durability and ease of use. They also can be easily cleaned. Use a pastry brush to add liquids to any food during or after cooking. Pre-cooking pastry brushes are small with short handles while barbeque brushes feature long handles to help protect from heat in the oven or on the grill.
