A good basting brush is something every cook needs in the kitchen, whether you're basting pan juices or butter on a protein, spreading butter or oil in a saute pan or a baking pan to ready it for a batch of brownies, a cake or cupcakes, or spreading egg wash or glaze over baked goods. But what sets one basting brush apart from all the others out there? Maybe it’s the material it’s made of--nothing beats silicone for convenience (and no bristles left behind!)--or the number of bristles; or maybe it’s that its designers studied the problems with other basting brushes, thought long and hard about it, and then crafted a clever solution. That’s exactly what the folks down under at Dreamfarm did when they created the “Brizzle” (the scoop baste drizzle brush.)
The Brizzle is a flexible silicone basting brush that bends at the handle to pick up ~1T/15ml of liquid and then ‘baste’ it - though 4 holes, onto 100 silicone bristles, to apply your seasoned cooking liquid onto your protein. This technique and tool make everyone a chef in their own kitchen!
The Brizzle allows you to work with smaller quantities of liquid - whether pan juices from the smaller places of your pots or pans, or some melted butter or egg wash in a separate dish. At only 2”/51mm wide, the Brizzle can fit into small spaces when you bend the handle into a flat position for filling, lift to hold the liquid, and then brush onto your protein. It also works well for doing an egg wash onto your bread or pastry. And its uniquely shaped handle - a common feature of several Dreamfarm tools - keeps the Brizzle in a heads-up, non-dripping position between uses: baste a little, put it down, baste again, and repeat, while minimizing drips on your countertop and germ-transfer to your tool!
The Brizzle is a great addition to your kitchen toolkit: simple, easy to use, and dishwasher safe for convenient cleanup, and enhancing your cooking with a new approach to classic technique: definitely a Cool Tool: exceptionally well-designed to deliver great functionality to your kitchen!
