What to know about rice flour
Rice flour is the backbone of almost every commercial gluten free flour blend, and it earns that job by being boringly clean. Our data grades it A on gluten, on every FODMAP column, on histamine and histamine liberation, on salicylates, oxalate, nickel, lectins, sulfites and glutamates. There is very little in it to react to. The catch is not the flour, it is the bag: most products sold for gluten free baking are rice flour plus several other flours and gums, and those additions are what people actually react to. Read the ingredients list, not the front of the pack.
Watch for
- A bag labelled for gluten free baking is rarely plain rice flour.Chickpea or gram flour, soy flour, lupin flour and inulin or chicory root fibre are common blend partners and are the usual source of a FODMAP or legume reaction that gets blamed on rice
- Glutinous rice flour, also sold as sweet rice flour or mochiko, contains no gluten.The name describes how sticky it cooks, not the protein
- Graded borderline (B) for SIBO and inflammation.It is fast, fibre-free starch, so it ferments quickly and lands harder on blood sugar than an intact grain does
- Cross contact still matters for coeliac disease.Rice flour is frequently milled on shared equipment with wheat, so certified gluten free is the safer buy even though rice itself is graded A
- Brown rice flour keeps the bran, which brings more fibre and more of everything the bran carries.If white rice flour sits well and brown does not, the bran is the difference to test
