Sweet white rice flour is a fine flour from glutinous white rice, used in doughs, batters, and thickeners for cohesive, chewy texture.
About Sweet white rice flour
Sweet white rice flour is a pale flour milled from sweet, or glutinous, white rice. Despite the word “sweet,” it is not a sweetener, and “glutinous” describes the rice’s sticky cooked texture rather than wheat gluten. It is typically fine and dry.
When cooked, its starch gives mixtures a cohesive, chewy or elastic quality. It is used in doughs, batters, and thickened foods, and is distinct from ordinary white rice flour, which is made from non-glutinous rice. Products may differ in fineness and milling, so the label and ingredient specification matter.
