What it is

Semolina is a coarse flour made from durum wheat, a hard variety of wheat. It is the primary ingredient in most pasta. The wheat is milled into coarse granules, which are then dried and packaged.

Why it's used

Semolina is primarily used to make pasta due to its high gluten content, which gives pasta its firm texture. It is also used in some breads, puddings, and couscous. Its granular texture can also add body to soups and sauces.

Health notes

Semolina is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as a food ingredient. It is a source of carbohydrates and some protein. The Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA) has evaluated semolina, but did not set a numeric acceptable daily intake. There are no widespread health controversies associated with typical semolina consumption.

Allergen info
