<p>[QUOTE="Mill Cove Treasures, post: 147200, member: 60"]This brought back a memory from my childhood. My friend's great grandmother had two tops to her table. One top was smoother and she used it for rolling dough that had to be very thin. The extra top was not painted but I don't recall what the other top looked like. I remember watching her sprinkle flour on the smoother board each time she flipped the dough to roll it out even thinner. She would hold the dough up to the light or the light from the window and would continue to roll until it was thin enough. I'm guessing it had to be transparent to be thin enough. I don't know what they called it. She made a mixture that she spread on the dough and rolled it up like a jelly roll. I guess like a strudel. It was a big deal in their family because once word got out that she made it, all the aunts, uncles and cousins would show up to get some.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
