Semolina flour for dusting
Description
Semolina flour for dusting is coarsely ground flour made from durum wheat, with a light yellow color and a slightly nutty, sweet flavor. It has a grainy, sandy texture, making it ideal as a layer to prevent dough from sticking without absorbing moisture as intensely as all-purpose flour, resulting in a crispy pizza base and a dry surface for pasta when rolling out. Nutritionally, semolina mainly provides complex carbohydrates and protein, as well as minerals such as iron and magnesium, and B vitamins. It is filling and provides a gradual release of energy; those with gluten intolerance should avoid it, as it contains gluten. Store it tightly in a dry, cool place, preferably in a closed container; for longer protection against food moths, it can be stored in the refrigerator or freezer.
