A pasta roller saves time, labor and is a boon for arthritics.

  • To save time and labor, and as a blessing for people with arthritis, use a pasta machine to roll out strips of even-thickness dough for any filled dumplings, like "pierogi," "pierohy," "piroshiki" and more.

  • Roll up to setting #4. Cut, gather scraps and re-roll.

  • This technique also works for "kolaczki," "chrusciki" and other doughs that require further cutting.
