We have many examples here. Some of which are intended to cut noodles, so this is one that when you roll it out it actually cuts the noodles into uniform shape because of course we want it to be perfect—each noodle individually perfect. And there’s another example here, which is used for a special dish that’s somewhat like ravioli. It’s Maultaschen, which is a southern German tradition. So each of the little pockets of dough are filled with a vegetable filling. It’s quite delicious and this, when you roll it out, it actually presses and seals each of the little pockets so you have the dough encased within, uh, the uh, or the filling encased within the dough. And these are actually examples from the 1880s.
