How to use

• For porridge: whisk with cold water to a smooth paste, then stir into simmering water or milk until thickened, sweetening to taste.
• For swallow-style rice: cook with water over low heat, stirring continuously until it forms a smooth, firm dough.
• Can also be used to thicken soups or in baking recipes that call for rice flour.

Storage

• Store in a cool, dry cupboard in an airtight container, away from moisture.

Frequently asked

Is this the same as cooking rice?

No — it's milled into flour, so it's prepared as a porridge or swallow, not boiled as whole grains.

Is it gluten-free?

Yes — rice flour is naturally gluten-free, though always check the pack for any cross-contamination notice.
