The only way for those cross-thingees to work is to have higher tension than my dough.

You want high-tensile strength dough? I got one word for you: Seitan.

Good luck.

I used this stuff for a recipe one time, back in the day on a dinner date. To characterize it as an epic fail would be a tragic understatement. The product of my efforts did indeed resemble dough which was cut into strips per the recipe, but it came out like... words fail me here. The flavor was OK, because the rest of the sauce and spices were ok, some kind of stew recipe. But the meat substitute was like trying to eat slices of a Vibram sole. Not an old boot, a brand new one constructed for maximum safety and penetration resistance. JFC, I don't think I was able to manage to chew one bite effectively. We wound up just eating around it, a meatless-free vegetarian stew.

But your strips will remain intact, I guarantee it.

I'm not sure what you're saying here. None of the latices broke. The filling is bubbling over them.
