Oklava (Turkish Rolling Pin)

A Turkish rolling pin is a long, thin rod used to roll out yufka (thin Turkish pastry sheets) and dough. The dough is wrapped around the rolling pin and rolled to form wide, thin sheets. It is an essential tool in Turkish cuisine for making borek (Turkish savory pastries) and baklava.

Where It’s Used

“Wrap the dough around the rolling pin and roll it back and forth to make thin yufka sheets.”
