I thought the microbial and bacterial side of things was going to be discussed with the use of an irregular rock with microscopic pits and crevices all over.
Don’t agree. I love it because I don’t have to push down which hurts my hands and arms. I gave up making noodles, etc due to being able to press down on my wooden one. I have a wooden 6” one I use for bread doughs. Thanks anyway.
and if you're now careful or get distracted and if rolls off the counter and onto your foot, well i'm talking from experience and the reason i do not use it anymore.
A marble rolling pin is great to use people just have to understand how much pressure they need when rolling out dough. When you are use to using wood pin you have to use much more body weight. Both are not wrong but it's just personal preference.
My rolling pin has no handles. It was made for me by my dad, from a maple tree about a block away from the house I grew up in. Very similar in size to the one you showed.
I love my 40 year old marble rolling pin. My pies and cookies get rave reviews and requests for them so it must be performing just fine for me. I had a wooden one from 1970, replaced with marble. Again, it's wonderful! I highly recommend marble. Perhaps the brand and the handler make the difference.
French rolling pin is definitely my preferred. It's much more versatile and you don't get those little lines from regular rolling pins. I would use a marble one if I had the chance but I feel like a would one gives you a little more control unless it is an extremely heavy dough
I think, in part, it's what you're used to. I've always used a pin with handles. I take your point about the marble–I have one, and I have the problems you mention–but an old wooden pin with two handles seems to work fine for me.
How about a handle on one end of the pin? I grew up with my mom's pin which had one handle broken off and I didn't know they were supposed to have 2 until I was in high school.
Why are you rolling out pizza dough?

Who invented the term pin for this? It is NOT a pin!
Wouldn't a chilled rolling pin have water condensation on it when you take it out of fridge?
Skill issue tbh
I love when rigorous testing proves that the best option is the one we’ve used for generations.
And that's why I use the same type of pin that you are holding.

The only thing I use my marble pin for is rolling out Chinese hot water dough for potstickers
Also you can always buy these at the thrift store.. Never give your money to what she says

Dumbest argument I’ve ever heard been using marble for about30 years sounds like you have operator error problems
Lmao, what are you guys doing rolling out pizza dough??
Is this satire?

I have a marble rolling pin. It is so heavy it squishes every dough it comes in contact with, so it is very thin, no matter what.
How about a handle on one end of the pin? I grew up with my mom's pin which had one handle broken off and I didn't know they were supposed to have 2 until I was in high school.
Too late
