Petra 5009 Spolverella — Professional Pizza Dusting Flour

Petra 5009 Spolverella by Molino Quaglia is a specialty Italian flour blend designed for dusting pizza worktops, dough balls and pizza peels.

Made from Tipo 00 soft wheat flour and finely remilled durum wheat semolina, Spolverella has a carefully selected texture that helps prevent sticking, reduces airborne flour dust and releases cleanly from dough during shaping.

Easier Pizza Stretching and Handling

Unlike ordinary flour used for bench dusting, Petra 5009 is specifically formulated to make pizza preparation cleaner and more efficient.

Its balanced combination of wheat flour and durum semolina creates a practical dusting surface, helping pizza makers stretch and transfer dough without excessive sticking.

Designed to Resist Burning

Petra 5009 undergoes a gentle toasting process and has a carefully controlled particle texture. These characteristics help reduce burning of residual flour during baking, making Spolverella particularly useful for pizza makers working with high-temperature ovens.

Made for Pizza Professionals

Spolverella is especially useful for:

  • Pizza benches: Dusting work surfaces before stretching dough.
  • Pizza peels: Helping pizza slide onto the baking surface.
  • Dough handling: Reducing sticking during shaping and transferring.
  • Professional pizzerias: Supporting efficient dough handling during busy service.

Petra 5009 is intended as a dusting flour rather than the primary flour for mixing pizza dough.

Professional 12.5 kg Format

One 12.5 kg (27.6 lb) paper sack is ideal for pizzerias, restaurants and frequent pizza makers seeking a convenient bulk supply. Need a smaller pack? See our Petra 5009 5 kg size.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Petra 5009 Spolverella?

Petra 5009 Spolverella is a specialty Italian pizza dusting flour made by Molino Quaglia. It blends Tipo 00 soft wheat flour with finely remilled durum wheat semolina, making it especially useful for dusting pizza benches, handling dough, and preparing pizza peels.

Can I use Petra 5009 to make pizza dough?

Petra 5009 is primarily formulated for dusting rather than mixing pizza dough. For the main flour in a pizza recipe, choose a dedicated pizza flour for your fermentation schedule, such as Petra 5046 Allegra.

Why use Spolverella instead of regular flour for dusting?

Spolverella is specifically formulated to reduce airborne dust, help prevent sticking and release cleanly from dough. Its particle texture and gentle thermal treatment also help reduce burning during baking.

Is Petra 5009 the same as semolina flour?

Not exactly. Spolverella is a blend of Tipo 00 soft wheat flour and finely remilled durum wheat semolina. It combines characteristics of both ingredients to make a specialized pizza dusting flour.

Can I use Petra 5009 on a pizza peel?

Yes. Petra 5009 is suitable for lightly dusting a pizza peel before transferring pizza into the oven. Use only as much as needed to help the dough slide cleanly.

Does Petra 5009 burn in a pizza oven?

Petra 5009 is formulated to resist burning during pizza baking. Its carefully selected texture and gentle toasting help reduce burning compared with ordinary dusting flour, although excessive loose flour can still burn in a hot oven.

Is Petra 5009 suitable for Neapolitan-style pizza?

Yes. It can be used as a dusting flour when stretching and launching Neapolitan-style pizzas. It is particularly useful in professional pizza-making environments where dough handling and clean transfers are important.

What is the difference between the 5 kg and 12.5 kg sizes?

Both sizes contain Petra 5009 Spolverella. The difference is the amount supplied: the 12.5 kg option is one professional paper sack, not a multipack. We also offer the Petra 5009 5 kg size.

Does Petra 5009 contain gluten or allergens?

Yes. Petra 5009 contains wheat (gluten). Molino Quaglia also states that it may contain traces of soy and mustard. It is not suitable for people who need to avoid wheat or gluten.

How should I store Petra 5009 flour?

Store in a cool, dry and ventilated area, away from direct heat and moisture. Keep opened flour protected from contamination. Molino Quaglia recommends using the product within 10 days of opening for best technical performance.
