Does the dough have to of a certain consistency for this to work? Also, will this work on whole wheat dough?

yes & yes. dough needs to be slightly firm, definitely not sticky. whl wheat tortillas work. I use a combination of whl wheat, soy flour, almond flour w/ olive oil. (U can find gluton free/low carb tortilla recipes on line). aft removing them from press, I still roll them really thin w/rolling pin. hope this helps. B

I have never tried it, but I don't believe the dough will stick. Here's why...I made a dough to bake rugelach and the pastries baked great on this. I don't think you'll find anything to stick on this....really! I cannot brag enough about this wonderful little baking pad. Definitely worth the purchase!

Yes but getting the right consistency in this machine is difficult. Doing small amounts seem to work ok. I get frustrated when making a full batch because I have to keep taking it all apart and adding more flour. It tends to clump up. When I get it right it's really good

It will work with bread dough. It is much easier to flatten the dough with plastic on both side .I used this to make the Pot Sticker wrapper(flour + Water)=====> (Thin and round wrapper)

I have made pizza dough and bread with great results. I suppose it all depends on the receipe you use. My suggestion would be to visit their website or better yet call and ask them specifically. Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

Any bread sealer (or stamper) works best with soft fresh bread. I've used it with whole wheat as well and it works! (not sure about grain bread) But sometimes if my bread is old, (for example, 1 week after I purchased them) the texture of the bread become harder, so then I would warm bread before imprinting on it. I only warm about 8 seconds in the microwave (or 15 seconds on the top of the pan)

ummm, The mat doesn't really prevent dough from sticking to it, you still have to use flour. I made a very sticky cookie dough recipe which stuck, so I just used more flour. I just really like the mat because I don't have to weigh down the corners, it sticks to the counter.

I keep my pasta dough just as dry as possible, as dry as the machine will accept and still work. I have had no problems with sticking.When I make the dough in the processor it is still rather granular, rather dry.

I have not. I have used this a number of times to make sourdough bread in the oven and it works well. Any whole wheat produces denser bread no matter the method of cooking.

It depends on the kind of dough. It works fairly well for cookie dough as long as the dough does not get too stiff.

Common sense will help you and practice... Plant a knife in the dough to see if it's cook! It also depends on the 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.

Whole wheat will not rise as high as white flour, but works perfectly well! I make a 100% whole wheat bread out of this flour all the time - it is great!

I've never had any problems with sticking. Always grease the pan (I prefer butter, oil works too) before putting the dough in. I've done sourdoughs that were allowed to sit overnight in the fridge to retard the rising, and even then they didn't stick, came right out after baking.

I make 3 loaves. Find a recipe though that uses only flour, water, salt and yeast. The dough "proofs", it doesn't rise. The yeast isn't mixed with water. Spritz the bread before you put it in the oven and it comes out perfect crusty on the outside and soft inside. I love this pan!!!!

Gina for bread dough I would think it could work but if the dough is too sticky it might be a major pain in the kaboos and better left to a rolling pin unless you can use two wax papers and do a quick press. If you think it can possibly help you with time I say test it out if it doesn't meet expectations return it .

Hi Karen. If the bread dough is light, not heavy or stiff, it will do well. If it is chewy and hard you wont be able to mix it or knead it.Regards
