Can it also be used to roll out pizza dough?

Never thought of doing that...but why not! Just Don't roll it too thin. Will have to try that myself!

Not a normal crust but if you were making a thin crust I think it would work.

Yes, you could, but it would score the mat. I would recommend using pastry knife, pizza cutter, or a butter knife; basically, any duller knife that will cut dough.

I've never rolled out dough on it, but if you have sticky dough it might work alot less effectively than a flour-sprinkled wooden surface.

I don't see why not. Haven't tried it myself but as long as your dough is the right consistency it seems this would be a good tool for the job.

I wouldn't. It is an excellent mat for rolling out dough and other items, but I would not cut on it. I have another rigid mat that I use for that purpose.

I have only used this for dough for making perogies. But I would think you can, because you can adjust the rollers for the thickness of the dough you want.

Sorry, but I have only used it for pizza so far. Other reviews have mentioned making bread with it.

Yes--it is thick and sturdy! I use it not only for rolling pie dough, but for kneading bread as well.

Absolutely! That's the reason we bought it. It helps to throw down a little flower to help the dough lift off without leaving any behind. Also, be careful if you're using a cookie cutter or something like that; it'll go right through the mat it you're not careful.

i would not use for pie dough-it is not wide enough. stick to your rolling pin!

The machine is not very good. I tried using it on fondant and it pulls the dough on one side. It is too narrow for pizza dough. I wish I returned it. I hope this helps.

Maybe...is my best guess. When I make a yeast dough for pizza or flatbread, I know I have to work the dough or it just springs back. So, if you are already working the dough, I would think that a rolling pin or if you are adventurous, a few tosses overhead to stretch the dough. I do see how the press would give you a nice flat round. I just don't think it would be any faster or more efficient since you couldn't just punch down the dough and press it. I think you would still have to work the dough and stretch it by hand before you press it. On the other hand, it would give you a nice, thin, even piece of dough (do you really want it that thin?)

I have only used it to bake pizza and am very happy with the results. It hadn't occurred to me to use it for other food that would be best if turned over. I'll try using it that way.

It should be used on a baking sheet. Perfect for sticky things as nothing will stick to it. Also good for rolling out dough on your counter.

I don't see why not. It has two dough beaters--not hooks like I am used to--and I haven't tried them out yet.

Maybe... I've used a similar food processor to mix bread dough, but if you plan to do that often, I would recommend something more like a Kitchen Aid mixer.

We have not made Pizza dough but pg. 35 of the instructions has a recipe for it. It should not be a problem. The recipe does require semolina flour and olive oil. It is probably not a problem.
