"to roll" and "rolling pin"

Question

In Spanish how would you describe the action one does with a rolling pin.
Would you use hacer rodar or estirar? to roll out dough =hacer rodar la masa o estirar la masa? also what does one call a rolling pin? un rodillo de la cocina? Thanks

possibly ' rodillo pastelero' but I think ' rodillo' is enough. - annierats, Dec 2, 2013

Answer 1

Nope. It is "estirar la masa". In my country (Argentina) we call the rolling pin "palo de amasar".

Answer 2

Hacer rodar la masa con el rodillo.
