"Brown Sugar."
--Mick Jagger, when asked about his cooking ingredients.


   OED has three definitions for "jagger," but not one fits the cooking usage.  WEBSTER'S NEW WORLD DICTIONARY OF CULINARY ARTS cites "jagging wheel" and "pie jagger."
   I noticed "pastry jagger" in a large Abraham and Straus ad in 1902, and it'll be my last post before doing parking tickets.
