Hi Gang.. Question for you.. among my pile of amazing rolling pins is this one.. it must be meant for something, and I can see using it to make a pattern or to make really crispy crackers or cookies if you rolled thin and then uses this to create thin lines. Having said that, I expect that it is meant to makes a certain something? I just don’t know what?

According to this site, it’s used for “Northern European crisp breads”. So, yeah, crackers 🙂

Maybe for triscuits? Just kidding! No idea, but I bet it makes a cool imprint! I’m thinking you’re probably right about the cracker thing.
I *think* it’s for making Swedish hardtack. I found recipes from the US Army in the 1800s. http://kenanderson.net/hardtack/recipes.html
Good old-fashioned survival food, that! 😀
