Why it's used
Manufacturers use durum wheat semolina flour primarily as the main ingredient in pasta due to its firm texture and ability to hold its shape when cooked. It is also used in couscous, bread, and some baked goods. Its coarse texture contributes to the distinct mouthfeel of these products.
