Rice & Flours

Semolina is a type of coarse flour made from durum wheat. It is commonly used in the preparation of pasta, couscous, and porridge. Semolina has a slightly yellow color and a slightly gritty texture, and it can be made from either soft or hard wheat varieties.

Semolina is a good source of protein, fiber, and complex carbohydrates, making it a nutritious food. It is also low in fat and sodium, which makes it a healthy choice for those watching their weight and blood pressure.

In cooking, semolina can be used to make a variety of dishes, such as baked goods like cakes and cookies, as well as savory dishes like pilaf and polenta. It is often used as a substitute for all-purpose flour in recipes that require a coarser texture or more structure, such as pizza dough or bread.

Semolina can be found in most grocery stores, usually in the baking or pasta section. It is also available in specialty stores and online retailers.
