Should I be careful when glazing puff pastry?

Glaze Carefully

If your recipe directions call for glazing puff pastry with an egg wash to give it gloss and a rich color, be careful the wash doesn't drip down the sides of the pastry. If it does, the egg will cook and harden before the pastry puffs and you'll be left with flat or uneven pastry.
