Does anyone know the best place in Philly to get 25# or 50# bags of Italian 00 flour? The Restaurant Depot doesn't carry it.

Semolina is a completely different flour than 00. Semolina is the consistency of cornmeal while 00 is a very fine grind. The 00 is what's used in Italy to produce fresh pasta with a silky texture.

quote:Originally posted by Jimeats You can also order it online at www.kingarthurflour.com But it seems you have a place in Philly Chow Jim King Arthur's Italian style isn't a true "00" flour, but rather a "clone" as[url='http://www.kingarthurflour.com/shop/detail.jsp?select=C79&byCategory=C277&id=3338']stated[/url]. Their Sir Lancelot is another that is sometimes substituted when making pizza dough. pb
