Abstract
A board for rolling dough comprising a generally flat rectangular board, preferably wood, with an elevated rail system on the surface of at least one side of the board that consists of a raised lip around the perimeter. The invention can be used with a rolling pin that is long enough to straddle parallel sides of the elevated railing. When the user rolls the rolling pin across the elevated railing, the rolling pin flattens the dough to a thickness corresponding to the height of the railing measured relative to the surface of the board.
Claims19
A rolling board comprising:
- a planar element having a perimeter and a substantially flat top surface;
- and a rail having a substantially flat top surface, said rail having an open section allowing it to be slid, in a plane substantially parallel to the substantially flat top surface of the planar element, around a portion of the perimeter of the planar element, and being slidably, removably attached to the perimeter of the planar element such that the top face of said rail is parallel to and raised a predetermined distance apart from the top surface of the planar element, forming a lip, wherein said rail has a fixedly attached coupling to a side of said rail for connecting to at least one groove of said planar element.
A rolling board comprising:
- a plate having a perimeter and a substantially flat top surface;
- a U-shaped frame having a substantially flat top face and planar sidewalls, having an open section allowing it to be slid, in a plane substantially parallel to the substantially flat top surface of the plate, around a portion of the perimeter of the plate, and adjustably coupled to the perimeter of the plate such that the top face of the U-shaped frame is parallel to and raised an adjustable linear distance apart from the top surface of the plate;
- and
- a coupling fixedly attached to an inner side of said U-shaped frame for adjusting the linear distance between the top face of the U-shaped frame and the top surface of the plate with said coupling connecting to at least one groove of said plate.
A rolling board for preparing food, comprising:
- a plate having a perimeter and a substantially flat top surface;
- a plurality of panels having substantially flat top faces and planar sidewalls adjustably coupled to the perimeter of the plate such that the top faces of the panels are parallel to and raised an adjustable linear distance apart from the top surface of the plate;
- and
- a coupling fixedly attached to said plate for adjusting the linear distance between the top faces and the top surface;
- the coupling connecting to at least one groove of said plurality of panels.
