Granoro Semola Rimacinata Durum Wheat Flour - 1kg (2 Pack)
For an authentic Italian bite, you need the structural strength that only durum wheat provides. This bundle includes two individual 1kg bags, offering a total of 2kg of double-milled semolina, the essential ingredient for traditional southern Italian cooking.
Unlike coarse semolina, Granoro Semola Rimacinata is milled twice to achieve a finer, more workable texture. This process preserves the high protein density and golden amber color while making it versatile enough to be used on its own or blended with Farina 00 for a customized dough strength.
This flour is the secret to achieving that perfect "al dente" snap in homemade orecchiette or cavatelli. It also produces a superior, golden crust on breads and focaccias, and provides a crunchy, non-greasy coating for fried seafood and vegetables. Check the FAQ below for details on the W Index and how it impacts your baking.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the W Index?
For this Semola Rimacinata, the W Index sits between 200 and 220. This indicates a medium-strength flour with high water absorption capabilities. It allows the dough to maintain its shape during extrusion or hand-shaping, ensuring your pasta doesn't go limp when boiled.
What does "Rimacinata" mean?
It means "re-milled." Standard semolina is often coarse like cornmeal. Rimacinata is passed through the stones a second time to make it fine and soft, allowing it to incorporate into doughs much more easily while keeping the strength of durum wheat.
Is this flour free of chemicals and glyphosates?
Granoro maintains high quality standards and holds multiple safety certifications including BRC and IFS. Their premium lines are certified pesticide and glyphosate-free through third-party DNV-GL monitoring, ensuring the absence of harmful residues from field to pack.
Is this flour enriched or bleached?
No. Like all Granoro products, this is a pure, unbl eached, and unenriched product. The golden color is 100% natural, coming directly from the heart of the durum wheat grain.
