Durum wheat (), also called pasta wheat or macaroni wheat (''Triticum durum'' or ''Triticum turgidum'' subsp. ''durum''), is a tetraploid species of wheat. It is the second most cultivated species of wheat after common wheat, although it represents only 5% to 8% of global wheat production. It was developed by artificial selection of the domesticated emmer wheat strains formerly grown in Central Europe and the Near East around 7000 BC, which developed a naked, Wheat#Hulled versus free-threshing species, free-threshing form. Like emmer, durum wheat is Awn (botany), awned (with bristles). It is the predominant wheat grown in the Middle East. ''Durum'' in Latin means 'hard', and the species is the hardest of all wheats. This refers to the resistance of the grain to milling, in particular of the starchy endosperm, causing dough made from its flour to be weak or "soft". This makes durum favorable for semolina and pasta and less practical for flour, which requires more work than with h ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
