No, semolina wheat is not technically gluten free thus those who suffer from coeliac disease would not be advised to consume it. However, those who are merely gluten sensitive or are just going on a gluten free diet can in fact consume semolina because the small amounts of gluten with proteins in their specific arrangement will not cause issues.

How do you produce semovita?

Semovita, is a branded word for Semolina. It is the starch from wheat fortified with proteins and vitamins. Modern milling of wheat into flour is a process that employs grooved steel rollers. The rollers are adjusted so that the space between them is slightly narrower than the width of the wheat kernels. As the wheat is fed into the mill, the rollers flake off the bran and germ and the starch is cracked into coarse pieces in the process. Using sifting, these starch particles, the semolina, are separated from the bran. The semolina is then ground into flour.
