Erawan Brand Thai Glutinous Sweet Rice Flour

1 pound bag - Thailand

 

Glutinous rice flour, also known as sticky rice flour or sweet rice flour, is a type of flour made from glutinous rice (Oryza sativa var. glutinosa). Despite its name, glutinous rice does not contain gluten in the same way that wheat does. Instead, it gets its "glutinous" or sticky quality from a high starch content, specifically amylopectin.

 

This flour is sticky! At least when you use it. This fine powdery flour has a naturally sticky and elastic texture. This characteristic makes it ideal for various culinary applications where a sticky, chewy, or gummy texture is desired.

 

Use it for a thickening agent, a binding agent, thickening agent, as a wheat flour substitute and in baking and desserts.
