Organic Gourmet Semolina Flour #1 3 lbs. Used in Italy for making pasta, Semolina is a fine grit made from durum wheat, the hardest variety of wheat grown. High in gluten and protein, semolina flour requires more liquid than standard wheat flour when used. Use it to make gnocchi or fresh egg pasta, add a ratio of 15% to any Mediterranean bread dough to create a wonderful, crunchy texture, use as a base for souffle, simmer with raisins and honey for a hot cereal, or cook and prepare like polenta.
