Norpro Silicone Pastry Mat - N13
The “baking season” is upon us: cookies, pies, and everything in between …. And one of the most difficult parts of making a pie has been getting the crust “right” - right thickness, right size. But the benefits of all that technique will be lost, if you don’t get the right size, or if you can’t get the rolled-out crust from the rolling surface to the pie pan. Yes - we have a solution!
The Silicone Pastry Mat from Norpro is the solution. Silicone has several benefits over the pastry cloths and plastic mats of yesteryear. First, it sticks to the countertop, to assure an even rolling surface that stays in place. It is conveniently marked in inches along each outside edge and, in the center, for round pie crusts from 6” - 15” in diameter. Its non-stick surface permits easy release without grease, so lifting the rolled-out crust has never been easier. And because it is oven-safe to 450ºF, it can serve as a baking sheet liner for even heat distribution. And because it’s flexible, it can be stored flat, or in a tight roll, without fear of permanent warping.
In summary, an essential tool for baking … a classic, basic design, executed in modern materials that dramatically improve functionality … definitely a Cool Tool!
