Well Stefan, it's one of those utensils that seems to come in handy for a lot
of things. In the Schola Feast it was used the paint the boars' head as well
as dampen the edges of the pies and the filo sheets. In fact at one point
two people needed to use it at the same time for their dish preps.
I can see it used creatively for a multitude of other things - greasing
things maybe... glazing things... as well as brushing pastry crusts with
water or egg as is the usual use for it I think... It's just handy to have
around.
