We
cut pastry using a number
of tools:
|
 |
| * plain or fluted cutters |
| * flan ring |
| * knife or dividers |
| * lattice cutters |
| * knife |
|
| Lightly dust cutters before cutting to prevent the pastry from sticking to the cutter. Always wash and dry cutting equipment well before replacing them. |
| When cutting pastry, a clean even cutting is required. If you are cutting raw paste then a damp clean knife with a sharp edge such as a cooks knife should be used. |
| If cutting / trimming paste from pies, tarts or flans a small office knife will do. |
