Rice Flakes

Rice flakes are flat rice grains that have been husked, steamed, and rolled. This process makes them easy to digest and quick to prepare, simply soak briefly or simmer for a short time. They have a mild, slightly sweet taste and a neutral aroma, making them suitable for both sweet and savory dishes. They are used to make porridges, muesli, desserts, and also as a thickener in soups and sauces. They are naturally gluten-free, making them popular among people with celiac disease or gluten intolerance. They originate from South and Southeast Asia, where they are a staple of traditional cuisine.
