Service Description

Take home your Pecan Pie and your own French Rolling Pin - Both are great gifts. + We'll make the famous foolproof pie dough from Cooks Illustrated. + And also make their best Pecan Pie recipe... + And you can make it with your own French Rolling Pin you turned on the Lathe. + Plus you'll take home Dough to make more pies at home and 2 small classes of 3 each that will switch between baking and lathe turning. Must be 16 or older. A good project to learn the Lathe and a great gift. The French is the best pin for most bakers. Even my grandmother made the switch. The foolproof pie dough from Cooks Illustrated is tender and flakey - a crowd pleaser and who doesn't love Pecan Pie? You'll need one for the Holidays anyway and they're a great gift. We'll have a prebaked pie shell ready so you can take home a finished pie. You'll make enough dough to take home for 2 more pie shells to make later. Good-looking and sturdy enough to last a lifetime. A 18 to 23-inch tapered pin rolls out dough more efficiently than handled pins. The French-style tapered design is easy to maneuver and still provides enough substance to make easy work of any rolling task from pies to cookies, and is one of the easiest to clean. Crack nuts, bash ice, tenderize and roll out pork cutlets or chicken fillets. You may want to rethink finishing it too smooth. The texture of unfinished wood doesn't cause disastrous sticking, it keeps flour on it longer and actually seems to help grip and stretch the dough during rolling. Raw wood requires a little upkeep—I wouldn't leave the thing soaking in a sink of water—but basically you can treat it as you would a wooden cutting board by drying it after use and rubbing it down occasionally with food grade mineral oil. For that minimal effort you'll be rewarded over time with a natural nonstick finish and a beautiful patina.
