If I oil my hands, won't I drop the bottle of oil though?

Hmm, that doesnt' seem to work for me at all, but as some of the other folks said, maybe I am just making my dough too wet.

That's a pretty good idea. I didn't think of it. Maybe there is a good pump of Pam that would work, of course then I'll end up dropping the bottle. :-)

With shortening you have to keep replenishing it. My grandmother used to use a little bit of water on her hands to keep them from sticking. My own method is just to keep moving quickly so that nothing sticks. Adding a tiny bit more flour to your dough might help, too.

Thanks for the tips. It makes sense you'd have to replenish it. I guess I was thinking of it like a glove instead of the lubricant it is.

Oil your hands
Or, add more flour

More flour to the dough, I am assuming. Does flouring your hands actually work?
