Caputo Semolina Durum Wheat, Italy - 1KG
Durum wheat semolina, 1kg. Caputo mills the coarse, golden inner kernel, nutty and high in protein. Fresh pasta is the main reason to open the bag. A dusting on a pizza peel is the other.
Orecchiette, pici, cavatelli, and gnocchi start here. Bread crusts, couscous, semolina porridge, and biscotti use it too. Pizzerias dust the bench so dough doesn't stick, and the coarse grain helps the base crisp. 1kg is a small-kitchen and home bag.
Keep it dry and sealed. Semolina in a damp bakery turns solid. Don't swap it 1:1 for 00 flour in a Neapolitan dough and expect the same crumb. Different grind, different job.
