Caputo Semolina Flour is an essential ingredient for achieving authentic Neapolitan-style pizzas. Neapolitan pizza dough is typically made with just 4 ingredients Caputo 00 Flour, Caputo Yeast, water and salt. Semolina is then added in the final stages when stretching the dough and launching it into the oven. A generous dusting of semolina will prevent  the dough from sticking to the counter and hands while stretching and the pizza peel when launching the pizza into the pizza oven. It has a fine yet slightly coarse composition which helps to prevent sticking and facilitates the smooth transfer of the pizza onto the hot baking surface. With Caputo Semolina Flour, you can effortlessly slide your pizza into the pizza oven ensuring a flawless launch and optimal heat distribution for a perfectly cooked pizza every time.  

Not only does Caputo Semolina Flour excel in its launching capabilities, but it also plays a crucial role in achieving the desired texture and taste of an authentic Neapolitan pizza. Its characteristic elasticity, when combined with water and yeast, results in a soft and chewy crust with a crisp exterior. This delightful combination of textures is further enhanced by the delicate nutty slightly sweet flavour that Caputo Semolina Flour imparts, adding depth and complexity to every bite.
