no see results option. if the poll doesn't apply to you skip it and/or check back later!!

*by this i mean: the dough/batter of the recipe called for eggs, and you cracked them into a bowl or whatever (mixed in other wet ingredients as necessary), then set the container to the side after incorporating them into the dry ingredients to use whatever's left for an egg wash. i guess this also means you didn't use a spatula for this part? could go either way?

#needs must say things #im wondering bc i mostly just skip the egg wash #will do option 3 if i think of it #will do option 2 if the recipe specifically calls for that type of wash... most of the time lol #but i don't bake much so i don't know about like. the true impact of the egg wash #always assumed it was just for the visual aesthetic and therefore immensely skippable #anyway pls reblog bc im curious to see ppls answers!!! but fine if not lol life goes on #cracking an egg just for an egg wash just feels wasteful and too annoying lol. of course you could save the leftover for something but why #go through all that #my thoughts! id like to see other ppls'!!#ok i need to go to sleep now lol #baking #egg wash #just realised i forgot a 'skip it entirely' option...... kill me
