Bob's Red Mill Stone Ground White Rice Flour
What it is
This is a finely milled flour made from white rice. The stone grinding process helps to preserve the natural qualities of the grain. The flour has a mild flavor and a light texture. It is often used to create delicate baked goods and as a thickening agent in sauces and gravies. The milling method contributes to a slightly different texture compared to other rice flours.
How people cook with it
People use this flour in a variety of ways in their kitchens. It is a versatile ingredient for both sweet and savory dishes.
- Thickening sauces
- Making noodles
- Coating fried foods
This white rice flour can be incorporated into many recipes. When used as a thickener, it can create smooth and glossy sauces. It is also sometimes used in batters for frying, helping to create a crispier coating. Experimenting with different ratios in your recipes can help achieve the desired texture and consistency.
How it differs from similar foods
The stone grinding method can result in a slightly coarser texture than some commercially milled rice flours, which some bakers prefer for certain applications.
How to keep the rest
To maintain its freshness, store the remaining flour in an airtight container. Keep it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture. Proper storage will help prevent clumping and preserve the quality of the flour for future use.
