Durum bread is a type of bread made primarily from durum wheat semolina, a hard variety of wheat known for its high protein content. Originating from Mediterranean and Middle Eastern cuisines, durum bread features a dense texture and golden hue, lending itself well to traditional recipes like pita, focaccia, and flatbreads. Its main ingredient, durum wheat, provides a good source of complex carbohydrates and essential nutrients like B vitamins, iron, and fiber, promoting sustained energy and digestive health. However, the bread can be high in calories, particularly if enriched with added fats or sugars, and may not be suitable for individuals with gluten sensitivities or celiac disease. Its hearty structure makes it versatile for pairing with nutritious toppings, such as lean proteins or fresh vegetables, making it a staple in balanced diets across cultures.
