what is sooji - #24568

Lincoln

I am struggling to figure out what is sooji actually and how it fits into my diet. I've been on this health kick for a while after my last check-up showed I was borderline diabetic. My doctor suggested I pay attention to what I’m eating, especially carbs. I heard a friend mention sooji, or semolina, as a healthier alternative but honestly, I still don’t really know what is sooji supposed to be good for. I've tried it in some upma and a few sweets, but I'm worried it might still spike my sugar levels. How does it compare to regular flour? I just want to make sure I'm not sabotaging myself! Plus, is there a specific way I should prepare it to get the maximum benefits or something? This has been weighing on my mind, especially with the cravings for my favorite pasta dishes creeping back in. Can anyone share their insights on what is sooji and how I can manage it in my meals without feeling guilty?
