20200275669 · 2020-09-03 · ·

A method of manufacturing a dough sheet, comprising providing a batch of dough, introducing the batch of dough to a pair of rollers, processing the dough through the pair of rollers to produce the dough sheet, and outputting the dough sheet from the pair of rollers. The pair of rollers is configured to transform the dough into the dough sheet, wherein a surface of each of the rollers of the pair of rollers is a grooved surface having a plurality of predetermined grooves. The predetermined grooves can run in a same direction as a direction of rotation of the roller, and the grooved surface has a predetermined surface roughness formed by the predetermined grooves.

Hard taco shell and method and apparatus for producing the hard taco shell

A taco shell is produced using a rotary cutter including a shaft, an outer blade extending radially outward from the shaft and a first inner blade extending radially outward from the shaft. The outer blade defines an interior area, enclosed by the outer blade, and an exterior area. The first inner blade is located in the interior area and includes a plurality of teeth. A dough piece is cut from a dough sheet with the outer blade, and a first arcuate line of depressions is created in the dough piece with the plurality of teeth. The dough piece is folded to form a shaped dough piece, and the shaped dough piece is baked to produce a hard taco shell.
