I absolutely love semolina, it's gorgeous.

Do you like it?

Or do you think it's like wallpaper paste :laugh:

Not had it since I was at primary school - I liked it then though but i used to eat mud :laugh:

They used to also give up Tapioca (unsure of spelling) - that was awful - like eating frog spawn

I think the only time I must have had it ...is if it's mixed into food already. I've never had it on its own.

I’m big on food textures so the thought of trying to swallow sweet tasting frog spawn is a no -no

My mum made it when we were kids. Had it with jam. Don't eat it as an adult. You never forget the taste of it.

We used to have this at school. We'd mix the jam in and call it train smash. Cute...

It really does depend on how it’s made (semo.’s processed and cooked in all sorts of ways across the world) but at the least it’s alright. I prefer there to be as few lumps as possible.

Oh yes, they were both similar. I was a strange child, so I kind of loved the idea I was eating frogs spawn! It appealed to my sense of humour!

I loved the taste and texture of both semolina and tapioca as a kid, but haven’t had either of them for years.

I don't think I've had semolina from a tin... but I've used semolina flour in a couple of recipes this year and thought the end results were amazing, I made this cake called Basbousa and it was delicious, that particularly stands out.
