A silicone brush is a kitchen tool made from flexible silicone material, designed for various cooking and baking tasks. It typically features bristles or a flat head that can easily spread sauces, oils, or batters. Silicone brushes are heat-resistant, making them suitable for use with hot foods and on non-stick cookware without causing damage. These brushes are also easy to clean, as they can be washed by hand or placed in a dishwasher. Unlike traditional brushes, silicone brushes do not retain odors or flavors, making them a hygienic choice for food preparation. They are often used in conjunction with other kitchen tools like spatulas and whisks.
