Organic Gluten-free Rice Flour

Organic gluten-free rice flour is made from rice grains that have been milled into a fine powder. It is a common alternative to wheat flour, especially for those avoiding gluten. Rice flour can be made from white or brown rice.

Rice flour is used as a thickening agent in sauces and gravies and as a primary ingredient in gluten-free baked goods like cookies, cakes, and breads. It can also be used in batters for frying, providing a crisp texture.

Rice flour is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for food use. It is a carbohydrate source and is naturally gluten-free. While generally considered safe, concerns have been raised about arsenic levels in rice products; however, regulatory bodies like the FDA monitor these levels and provide guidance to consumers. JECFA and EFSA have evaluated arsenic in food, but specific evaluations of rice flour's health implications at typical intake levels are not widely published.
