Rice Flour

Rice Flour

Rice flour is a premium gluten-free cereal flour manufactured through dry milling of white or brown rice, delivering clean neutral flavor, small particle size for smooth batters, and hypoallergenic properties essential for baking, thickening, and coating applications. In the food industry, it provides superior whiteness, bland starch functionality without wheat aftertaste, excellent water absorption for tender crumb structure, and versatile performance across frying, extrusion, and gluten-free formulations ideal for Asian noodles, tempura batters, and bakery products.

Food Industry Applications

• Gluten-free bakery: Creates light tender cakes, cookies, breads, and muffins with rice flour blends maintaining structure without gumminess, excellent crumb softness through balanced protein-starch interaction, clean eating experience without sandy mouthfeel.

• Asian noodles and wrappers: Forms smooth extensible doughs for rice noodles, wonton wrappers, and rice paper maintaining flexibility during steaming and drying, consistent cooking performance without disintegration, ambient-stable texture for 30 days.

• Batters and coatings: Provides crisp golden tempura, fish batter coatings, and snack extrusion with clean adhesion and high puffing capacity during frying at 175-190°C, superior oil absorption control reducing fat pickup by 15-20%, extended crispness post-frying.

• Thickeners and sauces: Thickens gravies, soups, and sweet sauces with neutral flavor and short texture preventing stringiness, rapid hydration in cold-process applications, heat-stable viscosity maintaining consistency through reheating cycles.

• Baby foods and cereals: Produces hypoallergenic rice cereals and instant porridges with smooth mouthfeel and rapid cook-up, low allergenicity ideal for infant stage 4+ months, stable dispersions in fruit purees without separation.

• Snacks and crackers: Extrudes into rice crackers, puffed snacks, and thin crisps delivering uniform expansion and clean snap, consistent browning through Maillard control, long ambient shelf life without rancidity or softening.

Other Industry Application

In cosmetics, forms smooth bases for face powders and dry shampoos; in personal care, creates oil-absorbing scrubs and matte-finish lotions; in pharmaceuticals, serves as tablet diluent and capsule filler; in industrial uses, produces biodegradable packaging films and paper coatings.
