To make rice flour at home, you need to take a household blender to grind products. You can use a coffee grinder, but it is very difficult to grind rice on it to a state of flour. Then, pour rice into the food container and grind it, stirring occasionally. After a few minutes, the rice flour will be ready.

Rice flour is made from ground polished rice. It does not contain gluten and consists mainly of starch. Rice flour is perfectly digested. It can be used as a thickener for sauces. As the main component of the dough, rice flour is used in the manufacture of noodles and pastries.

Rice flour is used as an alternative to gluten meal (rye, wheat and oats). In the manufacture of some varieties of baking and desserts using rice flour, the palatability of dishes is much higher than with conventional wheat flour. In traditional Asian cuisine, rice flour is used to bake sweets and sticky coconut cake.

Rice flour bread is crispy and crumbles easily. Since rice absorbs a lot of moisture, when adding flour to the dough, you need to add more eggs. Then the finished product will not be excessively dry.
Rice flour the smaller - the better. In the manufacture of baked goods, rice flour should be taken in less quantity than wheat flour. And water - on the contrary, more. Rice flour is not suitable for yeast products, as it does not contain gluten. You need to bake the product from rice flour for a little longer and at a lower temperature than from wheat.
If there is a problem with the tolerance of wheat flour due to its gluten content, rice flour will be an excellent alternative for making baked goods.
Rice flour products are a real salvation for people suffering from diseases of the gastrointestinal tract.

To bake products from rice flour, you need to take more water and eggs - rice absorbs water well.
