Our Durum Wheat Semolina is a type of grain that is particularly high in gluten. Semolina undergoes a relatively complex manufacturing process. The cereal grains are cleaned and hulled in their coarse state before being milled several times.

It is chewier and remains more stable during cooking than soft wheat (normal bread wheat). In addition, durum wheat semolina is high in yellow colour pigment, which gives pasta made from durum wheat its distinctive golden colour.
