Dave Marrs is a household name who appears on television with his beautiful wife, Jenny Marrs, to present the popular HGTV program, “Fixer to Fabulous.” The couple recently judged the first episode of “Rock the Block,” Season 4.
Despite his busy work life, the father of 5 makes sure to spend quality time with his kids as much as possible.
Recently, Dave shared one such precious moment by making semolina pasta for dinner with his children. Not only did he post cute pictures in the process, but he also shared his special recipe with his fans.
So, let’s see how the home renovator makes semolina pasta at home.
What is Semolina Pasta? Its Health Benefits and Side Effects
Semilona Pasta is a unique pasta that is made using Semolina (Suji) flour. Unlike other flour, Semolina is a bit grainy and appears more golden or brown in comparison to other flour.
According to the source, as Semolina flour is high in gluten, and protein, pasta made from it remains in good shape even after being cooked.
Likewise, Semolina Pasta has multiple health benefits, including,
- As it is an excellent source of protein and fibre, it will not only provide essential nutrients for your muscles and bones but will also make you feel full for a long time.
- It is rich in carbohydrates and provides you with instant energy.
- Low in fat, so it can be consumed by people trying to balance their body mass.
- It is rich in thiamine, vitamin B, folate, sodium, iron, and many other vital nutrients.
- It has a high level of magnesium, so it assists in regulating blood sugar.
While there are many merits of eating Semolina pasta, lets now see some of its side effects,
- It may cause diarrhoea or vomiting among gluten-sensitive people.
- Semolina is also made from wheat, so it may be harmful to people with a wheat allergy.
- Likewise, it may also harm people who have high sodium concentrations in their bodies.
How Did HGTV Star Dave Marrs Made Semolina Pasta? His Ingredients With Instructions
On 8th March, Mr Marrs shared a post on his social media mentioning cooking dinner with his son and daughter.
He said the simple act of making dinner with Charlotte and Luke made him feel thankful for the life God had blessed him with. “Sometimes the most ordinary task becomes extraordinary,” noted the star.
Likewise, after some days, the HGTV host posted a picture with Charlotte and shared his special Semolina pasta recipe among his fans. He said, “Nothing like fresh semolina pasta on a rainy Saturday with my girl.”
According to Dave, his pasta recipe is straightforward, and all he needs is 8 cups of organic semolina flour, 1 tablespoon of sea salt, 6 tablespoons of olive oil and 2-3 cups of hot warm.
Now that you have all the ingredients combine and mix them with warm until it becomes a “springy dough ball.”
After that, he mentioned about kneading the doubt for about 5 minutes and wrapping it in Saran Wrap to refrigerate it for half an hour. After that, he said, “roll out dry and enjoy. Mine only has to boil for about 3 minutes. Next up, my brother in laws homemade sauce recipe.”
His followers took no time to respond to his recipe and but it was his pasta-drying stand that caught most people’s attention.
“Is there anything you can’t/don’t do?!? Love your show and we live right here in Bella Vista,” said one fan. While the other said, “You should make pasta drying racks (?) and sell the.”
Also, another female follower said, “But the real question is did Dave make his own wooden pasta holders or did y’all cave and order them off Amazon!? 😂”
