Rice Flour

I made this flour because I am working on a health bread recipe that is wheat and yeast free. Hopefully the recipe will be coming soon to my blog. I’m working on perfecting the recipe. I’ve already attempted it 3 times. Each time comes with slight improvements in the taste and texture. Hopefully the next recipe works out perfectly. If it doesn’t I may just give up.

Rice flour is a great substitute in place of plain flour as it is wheat and gluten free. Warning: this is an overnighter recipe.

Rice Flour

Makes 3 cups of rice flour

Ingredients:

• 3 cups basmati rice
• 9 cups hot water

Method:

1. Place the rice and water in a bowl. Leave to soak over night.

2. In the morning drain the water from the rice and leave to dry in a colander.

3. Pour the rice out onto a clean tea towel and spread out. Leave to dry for 15-20 minutes.

4. Once the rice is dry, place in a blender and blend until fine like the consistency plain flour.

5. Pour the flour into a pan and warm over a medium heat to remove any moisture. Stir constantly for about 10 minutes until completely dry.

6. Leave to cool then transport to a sterile jar.
