classic tapered wooden French rolling pin is the dough pro’s go-to, but it’s brilliant for beginners too, especially when rolling out circles of pastry, pizza, dumpling and pasta dough. Perfectly smooth, curved and lightweight, they don’t just look elegant, they’re beautifully easy to work with, giving you greater control and manoeuvrability.
Rolling flat and even dough can be challenging, so how is it easier to get a handle on it with a handle-less French rolling pin? It’s simple. Your hands naturally move more to the middle of the tapered wooden rolling pin, and you use the heel of your hand to push the pin. So, rather than grasping at side handles to push and pull, you’re applying direct, controlled pressure to your dough. For rolling circles, simply rotate in an arc with your right hand and keep the left side stationary with your left hand.
We’ve done all the hard work in testing sizes, shapes, weights and woods for the perfect wooden French Rolling Pin too. It had to be lightweight enough to manoeuvre effortlessly, but weighty enough that it does most of the hard work to flatten your dough. Long enough to handle family-sized pie crusts. Slender enough to let you get intimate with the dough and feel the thickness. Smooth enough to resist sticking or absorbing moisture. Easy to clean and perfectly balanced to keep delicate pastry dough free from dips and divots.
Handcrafted from quality beechwood, you’ll love the feel of our French Rolling Pin in your hand, and each one is unique with its own distinctive markings and patterns.
