How to measure semolina flour

1 cup semolina = 1 cup bread flour (in bread and pizza) (Chef's Pencil)
High-protein bread flour mimics semolina's chew and structure. Pasta made this way will be softer and less toothsome than a true semolina dough.

Semolina flour conversions: FAQ

Why doesn't a cup of semolina flour weigh the same as a cup of water?

A cup measures volume, not weight. Semolina flour is less dense than water (163 g versus 237 g per cup), so the same volume has a different weight. Weighing in grams is the most accurate way to measure it.
