rice flour

Gluten-free baking powder

Rice flour is flour made from finely ground rice, used extensively in Asian cuisines for noodles, dumplings, and sweets.

It produces a lighter, slightly chewy texture distinct from wheat flour.

Because it contains no gluten, rice flour serves as a staple in gluten-free baking: The recipe calls for rice flour instead of all-purpose.
