What it is

Rice starch is a carbohydrate derived from rice. It is a fine, white powder that is insoluble in cold water. It is produced by milling rice grains and separating the starch granules.

Why it's used

Rice starch is often used as a thickener or stabilizer in food products. It can also act as a bulking agent or anti-caking agent. It is commonly found in processed foods like sauces, soups, baked goods, and dairy products.

Health notes

In the US, rice starch is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as intended. It is a source of carbohydrates and is digested like other starches. International bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated starches, and they are considered safe for consumption. There are no widespread health concerns associated with typical intake of rice starch.

Allergen info

Rice is not one of the FDA's nine major food allergens. It does not contain gluten.
