DORER : Badigeonner une pâte au pinceau avec de l'oeuf battu, éventuellement délayé avec un peu d’eau ou de lait : cette «dorure» permet d’obtenir, après cuisson, une croûte brillante. On dore à l'oeuf entier ou au jaune uniquement les feuilletages, les tourtes et pies, la brioche, la pâte à chou, les pâtés en croûte; on dore à l'oeuf et au caramel, au lait sucré ou à l'eau miellée les biscuits, petits-fours et gâteaux secs. 3, record 1, French, - dorure%20%C3%A0%20l%26rsquo%3B%26oelig%3Buf
