Measuring semolina flour by cup and by weight
Semolina is coarse, so it packs densely: a cup is about 163 g, well above wheat flour. It is the traditional flour for dried pasta, gnocchi alla romana and for dusting a pizza peel so dough slides off. Finely ground "semola rimacinata" is lighter per cup than coarse semolina, so a recipe written for one will not measure the same with the other.
