What to Consider When Purchasing Rolling Pins

With so many rolling pins on the market, which one will be the best in your kitchen? There a few key points to consider to help you find the best rolling pin for your needs:

• Style: Some pins are perfect for pastries and offer features that help make it easier to size and roll dough. Some pins will be ideal for a variety of uses
• Material: There is no shortage of rolling pin materials to choose from. Stainless steel is great for staying cold and rolling out pie crusts or anything that needs cold butter. Wooden ones are heavy and great for rolling out bread, pastries, or doughs as well as crushing breadcrumbs. Silicone pins are easy to clean and nonstick.
• Size: Some pins are shorter, which is great for rolling out doughs and controlling the pin, while others are longer for large batches. Just remember that anything too long will make rolling and sizing difficult.
• Comfort: Make sure whichever rolling pin you decide on will be comfortable for you to work with.

Remember that there are countless rolling pins on the market for countless types of cooking and baking. There’s nothing wrong with needing more than one rolling pin if you cook and bake a variety of goodies!
