Rolling pin for tagliatelle in Bologna

The Bolognese rolling pin is a long wooden cylinder, usually made of beech or maple, used to roll out egg pasta dough by hand. Unlike small household rolling pins, it can exceed 80–100 cm in length and is designed to work large, extremely thin sheets of dough on the traditional wooden pasta board. It is the essential tool of the sfogline, the women in Bologna who preserve the art of handmade fresh pasta. In its simple handle‑less form, it represents an ancient utensil that has remained almost unchanged over time.
