About
Semolina flour is a coarse durum wheat flour that packs slightly heavier than standard all-purpose baking flour.
Semolina flour has a bulk density of roughly 44 pounds per cubic foot (0.7 g/mL). Because it is coarsely milled from hard durum wheat, its granular particles settle with less trapped air than finer flours. A common 2-pound (0.9-kilogram) bag takes up about 5.5 US cups of shelf space. It is denser than powdered flour, though it remains lighter by volume than granulated sugar or table salt.
From Wikipedia
Semolina is a coarse flour traditionally made from durum wheat. Its high protein and gluten content make it especially suitable for pasta.
