Thanks for clarifying the egg white application.

Anyone familiar with "spitshine" and "linseed oil polishing"?

Its really very easy. Just crack an egg and pour the white (but not the yolk) into some sort of container. I use a margarita glass for it.


Why am I not surprised by this!

Well a pint glass is too deep and a wine glass is too awkward. An Absinthe glass seems to work well for this application too (though better for others, admittedly). But the shallow and wide bowl of a margarita glass is ideal. 8-)

I used a wide mouth salsa jar. Is that OK? I think I have a Highball glass I could use, if necessary. It'll be the only time it's been used in years.
