Broken Glasses

[stevebody]

Egad! Look, I'm as much a fan of personal eccentricity as the next guy (some would say I'm the NW distributor) but the very thought of cutting dough with a wine glass sends little shivers through my lumbar-sacral region. For the Love of God, man, go out to your local kitchen supply and have turn loose of the buck-59 it would cost you to get a circle cutter. I offer this from experience. I once whacked up some croissant dough with a jelly glass and a bit of the rim cracked off and wound up baked onto the rim of the roll. Luckily, I was the one who bit into it and not one of my guests. I had to throw out the whole lot of rolls because I couldn't match my fragment to all of the chipped spot.

Most restaurant kitchens don't allow the use of any glass containers, like employee drinking cups, for that very reason. All kidding aside, use a plastic or metal cutter, please. Be safe, compadre.
