On the blade we’ll also find large, etched measuring markings. They’re easy to read for perfect cuts every time.

I also like to use the dough scraper to section off the dough I need. If I am making a double pie crust and want two pieces of dough to be the same size, the dough scraper is an easy way to separate the dough. I look forward to adding this tool (finding a blunt one of course) to our kit of things for the kids to use while cooking! It looks like a classic dough scraper but its quality is impressive, one of the best without a doubt although the price is a bit high. It was especially helpful with baklava, which is a Greek pastry dessert that is made by layering fillo dough on a tray with nut fillings. Before we put this in the oven, we used a dough scraper to cut it into little squares. After it baked and the syrup was poured on, we again used the dough scraper to completely separate the pieces and scrape it off the tray onto serving plates and containers. I have one bottom drawer in my kitchen where I keep utensils that I don't use very often. This drawer used to hold my metal dough scraper until I began making my own bread and pie crusts.

Messermeister Silicone Bowl Scraper: The asymmetrical D-shaped of this scraper made it versatile for a wide range of bowl shapes, but the edges of the scraper were a little soft, making it more difficult to use when cutting gnocchi. It also stained the worst when used to push pumpkin puree through a fine-mesh sieve. The blade is sleek, high-grade stainless steel. It is crafted to scrape, scoop, cut, chop and more.

The really cheap price does in no way suggest that this one isn’t worthy of the best dough scraper title and I also love the sturdy wooden handle and the contrast it makes with the stainless steel blade. Martha Stewart Collection Bowl Scraper: This small scraper was very stiff and rigid, making it difficult to bend and uncomfortable to use.Material – Dough scrapers come in all different materials. Some scrapers are made from soft materials like silicone. Others are made from harder materials like wood or metal. Different materials are best for certain tasks. Overall, the Winware Stainless Steel Dough Scraper with Wood Handle can be easily regarded as the best bench scraper of high quality for an unbelievably cheap price.
