We put the COTEY 6-inch Empanda Press through its paces, curious about its claim as a versatile 2-in-1 dough cutter and dumpling mold. The stainless steel build feels sturdy and reliable, a standout for its durability and seamless cleanup. While the primary focus is on empanadas, we tested its range-dumplings, ravioli, pierogi, hand pies-and found it adaptable, though not flawless. The dual function simplifies preparation, allowing us to shape dough and cut it in one motion, saving time in our kitchen. However, the press's size might be a double-edged sword: while it's perfect for smaller batches, handling larger quantities could require more effort. Overall, it's a solid tool for those seeking efficiency, but we'd caution that it's not a one-size-fits-all solution. Still, its compact design and multi-use appeal make it a worthy contender in the world of artisan baking.
