Organic whole semolina pasta 100% Timilia wheat

Timilia wheat, also known as 'Tumminia,' is an ancient durum wheat variety. The organic whole wheat flour derived from this grain strongly resembles the aromas of coffee and toasted hazelnuts, while the flavors and scents of the fields have always been its distinctive characteristics.

Although it contains bran, the most fibrous part of the wheat grain, Timilia is very delicate and is also called "false durum wheat" . In fact in Sicily, in addition to pasta, they also produce pizzas and bread, precisely because of its delicacy, despite being part of the durum grains.

Timilia wheat is processed by the Mills of Ponte di Castelvetrano (Sicily) , millers for generations and expert connoisseurs of typical Sicilian grains. It is one of the mills that committed itself to bringing the milling of ancient grains into production at a time when the industry was focusing more on the high yield of the raw material, neglecting quality.

Type of wheat: Ancient Italian durum wheat (Triticum durum)

Wheat kernel: It contains semolina + semolato + the inner

noble part and the outermost portion of the husks. It also contains more external fibre than the husk, increasing the feeling of satiety.

Compliant with Italian Presidential Decree 187/2001, here is the integrity scale:

  • Ash index: 1.40 < 1.80 (amount of fibre remaining in the wheat after milling)
  • Maximum humidity: 14.50%
  • Minimum proteins: 11.50

Wheat composition: Monovarietal 100% organic Timilia variety
