You just made my day. Thanks

When things get a bit overwrought someone always steps in to put things in perspective. My all-time favorite eGullet post seems to have disappeared from that thread.

BULLSHIT BULLSHIT BULLSHIT !!

a real pasta can never be made without semolina or durum wheat as it is also

called.

I'm sorry but there are many pastas made without semolina flour. Tipo 00 flour is often used. In Italy depending on what kind of pasta you are making you use different types of flour. So before you YELL bullshit, please get your facts straight.
