Mulino Marino Organic Semola di Grano Duro 1kg

ulino Marino organic semola di grano duro is a finely milled durum wheat flour that’s perfect for homemade egg-free pasta. This fibre-rich flour is also ideal for a semolina sourdough loaf, a traditional bread from Apulia in southern Italy.

The semola di grano duro is made from the Senatore Cappelli variety of durum wheat. It’s prized in Italy for its flavour, and for the fact that pasta made with this wheat never overcooks – it’s always perfectly al dente. The durum wheat is grown especially for Mulino Marino in the southern Italian region of Basilicata.

Mulino Marino was founded in southern Piedmont in the mid-1950s by Felice Marino. He was fascinated by traditional flour milling, so when a small mill came up for sale – complete with original mill-stones – Felice knew he had to buy it. Together with his wife and her parents, he started to learn the milling business.

Now, over 60 years later, Mulino Marino produces some of the best flour in Italy. They select the finest organic grains, nuts and pulses and mill them to the perfect texture using their carefully researched traditional techniques. The milling is powered entirely by solar power – so not only are Mulino Marino flours organic, they’re sustainably produced as well.
