Glutinous Rice Flour

Glutinous rice flour, also called glutinous flour, is a type of flour obtained from glutinous rice, which is a variety of rice containing a higher glutinous starch content compared to long rice. This flour is characterized by its sticky consistency when cooked.
Rice flour not only does not contain gluten and cholesterol, but is also rich in fiber, minerals (magnesium, manganese, phosphorus) and B vitamins (B1, B2, B5, B6).
Glutinous rice flour is white and has a slightly sticky consistency when cooked. Unlike regular rice flour, which is loose, glutinous flour is very sticky and is suitable for forming cakes, noodles and other foods with a sticky consistency.
Glutinous rice flour is often used in East Asian cuisines, especially Thai, Chinese, Korean and Vietnamese cuisines. It is used to prepare traditional dishes such as glutinous rice dumplings, rice cakes, fried dishes and desserts such as stuffed rice balls.
