Organic Rice Flour

Organic rice flour is a gluten-free flour made from whole or milled organic rice. It is produced by grinding rice grains into a fine powder. This flour is a staple in many cuisines, particularly those that rely heavily on rice as a primary grain.

Manufacturers use organic rice flour as a gluten-free alternative to wheat flour in baked goods like cookies, cakes, and bread. It also functions as a thickener in sauces, gravies, and soups, and is commonly found in snack foods and cereal bars.

Organic rice flour is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. It is a source of carbohydrates and some B vitamins. JECFA has evaluated rice flour, and EFSA has evaluated rice. Concerns have been raised about arsenic levels in rice products, and consumers concerned about arsenic intake may wish to vary their grain sources.
