Wheat Semolina

Wheat semolina, also known simply as semolina, is a coarse flour made from durum wheat, a hard wheat variety. It is commonly used in the production of pasta, couscous, and certain types of bread. With its high protein content and gluten strength, wheat semolina produces dough that is elastic and easy to shape, making it ideal for pasta making. It gives pasta a firm texture and helps it maintain its shape during cooking. In addition to pasta, wheat semolina is also used in baked goods like bread, where it adds texture and a slightly nutty flavor. Its versatility extends to desserts as well, where it can be used in puddings, cakes, and cookies.
