This beech wood kruskavel is a specialist knobbly rolling pin used to dimple crispbread dough before baking. The raised pattern helps create the traditional texture found on Scandinavian crispbreads such as knekkebrød, knäckebröd and knækbrød.
To use, roll the kruskavel firmly across the rolled-out dough before baking. The textured surface marks and dimples the dough evenly, helping it bake into crisp, breakable sheets or rolls with the characteristic Scandinavian finish.
It is particularly useful if you make crispbread regularly, or if you want a more authentic finish than pricking the dough by hand. Use it for rye crispbread, sourdough crispbread and other thin savoury crackers.
Made from beech wood with handles for easy rolling, this is a simple traditional tool for bakers who enjoy Scandinavian breads and crispbreads.
The textured roller is wide enough for practical crispbread work (25cm), while the handled design gives good control across rolled-out dough.
