Durum Semolina flour in Seattle

[vengroff]

I've exhausted the supply of durham semolina I brought with me when I moved here. Where is the best placce to buy some more? I checked when I was in DeLaurenti a while back but I didn't see it. But I wasn't yet desperate so I may have missed it.

I know they at least used to have it at Sunshine Produce at 18th & Madison, but I haven't been there for a few years.

I've seen it at PCC. If it's not on the shelf I'll bet you can order it.

I think Sunshine Produce is closed. If you're looking for somewhere in that area, Madison Market can probably special order it, if they don't have it.

No luck at Madison Market when I looked last week, but I'll check about special ordering.

See what I mean? I don't even know if the place still exists, much less whether or not they carry semolina flour.

Too bad though, they must have been a victim of all the construction in that area.

I'm pretty sure Bob's Red Mill has semolina in a bag. Whole Foods carries most of the BRM line, so I'd give them a try, or PCC.

[Really Nice!]

I've seen Bob's Red Mill Semolina at Larry's in Kirkland.

DeLaurenti definitely has both durum and semolina as I bought a bag of both. I'm not sure why it's considered one and the same as the durum was quite different from the semolina which was alittle coarse, while the durum was very soft and yellow in color. You'll find the flours upstairs - some on a rack and some behind the counter. I recently bought some semolina flour from Central Market in Poulsbo from their bulk section and it was awful. It was more like semolina cereal and I couldn't make pasta from it as it wouldn't develop. Next time I won't buy such a large amount of an untried product.

This week I went to PCC in West Seattle and bought the Red Mill which they call durum semolina. I haven't tried it yet though. I definitely think DeLaureni has the very best so far.

I checked Borrachini(sp) in Beacon Hill and couldn't believe that they didn't have any pasta flours!

This reminds me, PFI has it in bulk too. I don't know of its quality though.

Sorry, but what's PFI?

Thanks tsquare! Now I remember, that's the place my friend said I should check out. I forgot all about it. As you can tell, I'm in a pasta-making phase and finding all the places that carry good flour....
