Foo Lung Ching Kee Rice Flour 450g

Rice flour, also called rice powder, is a form of flour made from finely milled rice. Both, white rice and brown rice are used in the milling process to produce the respective rice flours. Rice flour is a staple in Southeast Asia, Japan and India, and is very different from rice starch, which is produced by steeping rice in Iye (a strong alkaline solution). Rice flour is rich in nutrients, and brown rice flour contains a higher level of B vitamins. This is because brown rice still has its outer husk intact whereas during the milling of white rice, the husk is removed. Most of the essential nutrients are found in the husk - fiber, vitamins and minerals such as calcium and zinc.

Rice flour can be used in making pasta, cookies and cakes. It also makes excellent rotis.
