What it is

Native rice starch is derived from rice grains. It is the natural, unmodified form of starch found within the rice kernel. The starch is typically extracted from the rice through a milling and washing process.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use native rice starch as a thickener and stabilizer in food products. It can improve texture, provide body, and prevent ingredients from separating. It is commonly found in sauces, gravies, baked goods, and dairy products.

Health notes

Native rice starch is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. It is a source of carbohydrates and is digested like other starches. Regulatory bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated starches, and they are considered safe when consumed as part of a balanced diet. There are no significant health controversies associated with its typical use in foods.

Allergen info

Rice is not one of the nine major allergens recognized by the FDA. Therefore, native rice starch is not considered a major allergen and does not contain gluten.
