Cabernet grape flour bread from Crust: Bread to Get Your Teeth Into by Richard Bertinet

  • fine semolina
    Semolina is the hard part of the grain of durum wheat. When hard wheat is ground, the endosperm--the floury part of the grain--is cracked into its two parts, the surrounding aleurone with its proteins and mineral salts and the central floury mass, also called the endosperm, which contains the gluten protein that gives hard wheat its unique properties for making good pasta. A cream-colored semolina is used in pasta or Italian-style breads. There are difference grades: (1) Semolina flour is finely ground endosperm of durum wheat; (2) Semolina meal is a coarsely ground cereal like farina; and (3) Wheatina is ground whole-grain wheat. When other grains, such as rice or corn, are similarly ground, they are referred to as "semolina" with the grain's name added, i.e., "corn semolina" or "rice semolina."

    I chose to try this solely because I'd never worked with Cabernet grape flour before. The fact that it also used rye flour and a sour dough starter convinced me that it would be edible. The bread works very well on a charcuterie board but still strikes me as more of a novelty item than a kitchen standard. But the flour is fun to play with -- next up parchment crackers.
