| Trying to use up all my non-standard flours before Passover. I always buy these optimistic flours with fantasies of doing new things, give up, and then have to purge. I have a little less 30 days to use this up, so for meal-planning, I have come up with socca, whole-wheat pizza, whole-wheat pita, semolina pasta, and couscous. Any other ideas? |

Chickpea flour and coarse semolina are used in tons of Indian recipes.
Chickpea flour - pakoras, cheela, kadhi, dhokla Coarse semolina - Upma, handvo Whole wheat flour can be used for bread Fine semolina - semolina gnocchi, also many middle eastern cakes like basboosa/ namoura |
| We mix whole wheat flour 50/50 with white for muffins. |

Chickpea flour - pannises
https://www.davidlebovitz.com/panisses-1/ Semolina cake with the fine semolina https://www.thespruceeats.com/revani-cake-with-orange-syrup-1705281 A different cake with coarse flour https://www.bonappetit.com/recipe/semolina-cake-with-oranges I also sometimes make a polenta like dish with semolina. |
| I was going to suggest socca. So easy! I put cumin and sesame seeds in mine |
OP: Thanks! Yes, I make gnocchi alla Romana with the fine semolina. That semolina cake looks excellent. |

The semolina, coconut and marmalade cake from Ottolenghi's "Jerusalem" is divine. I love the crumbly texture.

Hmmm. I have fine semolina for making pasta and coarse semolina for making couscous. I wonder which semolina to use? |
