There is a sighted author, who writes light mysteries, and she includes lots of recipes in her books. (Her name is Joanne Fluke.) In nearly all her recipes, she says, "Using your impeccably clean hands--" She uses her hands more than anything else, it seems, and she's not afraid to let the world know it. So, I say that if your hands are impeccably clean, and you are more comfortable using your fingers to spread condiments, then go for it. Just wash your hands before applying each new condiment, and all should be well.
