Single-conversion pages for semolina
Working with semolina
Semolina sits in the flours & starches group, where a cup lands in the same range as water, but the material still compacts differently depending on how you fill the cup. Coarse durum semolina flows like sand and is one of the densest flours by volume.
If you are converting a whole recipe rather than a single line, the Recipe to Metric converter matches every ingredient to its own density in one pass, and the Recipe Scaler resizes the batch first so you only convert once.
