A re-milled durum wheat semola (semola rimacinata) from Mulino Caputo in Naples, ground twice for a fine texture that is ideal for fresh pasta and durum wheat bread.
It is milled from durum wheat only. Durum wheat is not the common wheat covered by UK flour fortification, so there is no added calcium, iron, niacin, thiamin or folic acid.
Use it for homemade pasta, Altamura-style durum wheat bread, or for sprinkling on the worktop when stretching pizza dough, just as pizza chefs do.

What can I make with it?
