*I was not paid for this review! I received this product free of charge for my honest opinion!
I love baking and cooking, I make homemade meals every day! One of my favorite things to make is homemade tortillas! My husband and my six year old son love them, and I usually have to chase them out of the kitchen while I guard the tortillas until dinner is ready. If I turn my back for a second, I'll see a tortilla fly off around the corner like magic. I'm used to a regular old fashioned rolling pin with the handles, but the handles always seem to get in my way somehow. I was thrilled to try out The Original French Rolling Pin since it seemed to be exactly what I needed!
The rolling pin is made of 100% beech wood and is one solid piece of wood without seams or nooks that leave tracks in your dough. One thing I hated about my old rolling pin was the sharp square edge that would make my dough uneven with marks sometimes. The French Rolling Pin has smooth tapered edges and measures a wonderful 18" long. It's definitely big enough to comfortably roll out pie crusts and large tortillas without having to layer your rolls.
I tried out the French Rolling Pin to make tortillas last night, and it was wonderful! I like to make my tortillas super big and had no problem doing it with this pin! It was so easy to use and I could get the full roll in by even rolling back onto my wrists at the end comfortably. I loved having my hands directly on the rolling pin for way better control than the traditional rolling pin with handles. Each roll was one smooth motion and my tortillas came out bigger and thinner than they usually do! They were the best tortillas I ever made! I generously use flour to keep the dough from sticking, but nothing seemed to stick to the pin at all. The pin came with some handy care tips, and when I was done, I rinsed it off without soap and toweled dry. Then I let it air dry for the rest of the night. This pin is nice and thin and easy for me to store in a little cranny with my baking sheets. I absolutely love this rolling pin, and I'm going to retire my old clunky pin to the storage now!
