Tarocco is the Italian term for a bench scraper or dough cutter. It's used to portion dough, scrape the work surface clean between stages, and gather ingredients or flour into one place. It's a standard tool in Italian home kitchens for pasta, bread, and pizza making. What is the difference between the Marcato Tarocco Classic and the Heritage version? The Heritage Tarocco is made from solid Canaletto walnut, a dark-grained Italian hardwood, and sits within Marcato's premium Heritage range. This Classic version is plain wood, does the same job, and costs less. If you want a workhorse bench scraper without the premium price, the Classic is the right choice. Can I use a wooden dough scraper on any worktop? Yes. Wood won't scratch stone, laminate, or wooden worktops. Avoid using it to scrape against ceramic or glass surfaces with heavy force, as the edge could chip over time. How do I care for the Marcato Tarocco? Hand wash only. Don't leave it soaking in water or put it in the dishwasher, as prolonged moisture will cause the wood to swell and crack. Dry it promptly and store it in the included cotton bag.
