Semolina
Semolina is the coarse, purified wheat middlings of durum wheat used in making pasta, and also used for breakfast cereals and puddings. Semolina is also used to designate coarse middlings from other varieties of wheat, and from other grains such as rice and corn. [Wikipedia]

Shared flavor compounds
These compounds appear in both Semolina and Miso, giving them a molecular basis for flavor affinity, the pairing principle articulated by Francois Benzi and implemented in flavor-pairing research.

Why it works
The flavor-pairing hypothesis proposes that ingredients sharing significant aromatic compounds harmonize on the palate. Semolina and Miso overlap on 20 key compound(s), which is why classic culinary traditions, and our deterministic matching algorithm, place them together.
