[CnD] Smoothing out batter?

2019-01-14 Thread Ann via Cookinginthedark

Hi,


I may have asked this before,  and if so, please forgive the repeat
question. But does anyone have good tips for a totally blind person on
the best way of smoothing out batter, such as cakes or brownies etc, so
that it's as even as possible? If the batter is a really thick one, I
tend to just use very lightly moistened fingers, but what about thinner
batter?


Has anyone ever done a podcast or tutorial on just some very basic
cooking tips, such as what I just asked. That would be a nice thing to
have handy when needed.


Thanks,

~Ann
