What it is

Durum wheat is a hard variety of wheat, known for its high protein and gluten content. It is commonly milled into semolina or flour, which forms the base for many traditional pasta products. The grain is grown in various regions worldwide, including North America and the Mediterranean.

Why it's used

Durum wheat flour, often in the form of semolina, is the primary ingredient in most dried pasta. Its firm texture and ability to hold its shape when cooked make it ideal for pasta. It is also used in some breads, couscous, and other grain-based dishes.

Health notes

Durum wheat is a source of carbohydrates, protein, and fiber. It is not a major source of added sugars or fats. The FDA considers durum wheat flour to be Generally Recognized As Safe (GRAS) for use in food. International bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated wheat and its components, but no specific health claims are typically associated with durum wheat flour at normal consumption levels.

Allergen info

Durum wheat is a type of wheat and therefore is one of the FDA's major food allergens. It also contains gluten, a protein that can cause adverse reactions in individuals with celiac disease or non-celiac gluten sensitivity.
