Product Description
Fine Rice Flour
Fine rice flour is a soft, pale powder made from ground rice, used for crisp batters, shortbread, thickening sauces and many Asian dishes. The fine grind feels smooth between your fingers and mixes easily into liquids. Some South Asian cooks know it as chawal ka atta.
What Fine Rice Flour Tastes and Feels Like
Fine rice flour has a mild, plain taste that lets other ingredients come through. It feels light and silky, a little like cornflour but slightly softer. Because the grind is fine, it gives smooth batters and a delicate, crisp finish when fried or baked.
Rice flour does not make stretchy dough the way wheat flour does. This is why it gives a short, sandy bite in biscuits and a thin, crisp coating on fried food.
Ways to Use Fine Rice Flour
- Shortbread and butter biscuits, where a little rice flour gives a crisp, crumbly bite
- Light batter for tempura-style vegetables, fish or pakoras
- Akki rotti and other flatbreads made with rice flour and hot water
- Chakli, murukku and other fried snacks
- Thickening soups, stews and sauces
- Dusting a tray or work surface when handling sticky dough
Tips for Cooking with Rice Flour
Mix fine rice flour with a little cold water first when thickening hot liquids. This stops lumps and gives a smooth sauce. Stir well while it simmers, as it settles quickly at the bottom of the pan.
For batter, add the flour to cold sparkling water or cold water just before frying. A cold, thin batter fries up lighter and crisper.
Fine Rice Flour FAQ
Is rice flour the same as glutinous rice flour?
No, they are different flours. Glutinous rice flour, also called sticky rice flour, is made from a different type of rice and turns chewy and sticky when cooked. Fine rice flour gives a lighter, crisper result.
Can I use rice flour instead of plain flour?
Sometimes, but not in every recipe. It works well for thickening, batters and some biscuits. It will not give the stretch needed for yeast bread, so use a tested recipe for those.
How do I stop rice flour going lumpy?
Whisk it into cold liquid before you heat it. You can also sift the flour first. Add it slowly and keep stirring.
Add fine rice flour to your basket for your next batch of shortbread, crispy batter or homemade chakli.

We take great care when preparing and securely packing every order; however, during transportation, parcels may be handled by several parties, including the courier, and despite our best efforts, minor cosmetic damage such as dents, marks, scuffs or damage to external packaging may occasionally occur. Minor cosmetic damage that does not affect the product’s safety, quality or intended use will not normally be considered a product defect. This is particularly applicable to products supplied in cans, tins, plastic containers, boxes or similar packaging. If you receive a product that is broken, leaking, materially damaged, unsafe, unusable or otherwise not as described, please contact us within 24 Hours of delivery by email or telephone and provide your order number, details of the issue and clear photographs of the damaged product and packaging. We may require further information or evidence to investigate the matter and, where necessary, may take up to 14 days to complete our investigation. Where damage appears to have occurred during delivery, we may need to raise a claim with the courier, and you may be required to complete and return any Damage on Receipt (DOR) form or other documentation requested by the courier before the claim can be processed. Some products we sell are price-marked or display a manufacturer’s recommended or printed retail price. Please note that our online selling prices may differ from the price printed on the product because online orders involve additional costs such as picking, packing, packaging materials, warehouse handling, payment processing, website administration and delivery-related costs. You may therefore receive a product displaying a printed or recommended retail price that is lower than the price you paid online. The price you agree to pay is the online selling price displayed on our website at the time you place your order, and the presence of a lower printed or recommended retail price on the packaging does not, by itself, mean that the online purchase price was incorrect. Product images displayed on our website are for illustration and presentation purposes only. Actual product packaging, branding, design, colour, size, shape or appearance may vary depending on availability, manufacturer, batch or packaging updates. Such variations do not necessarily indicate that the product supplied is different from the product ordered, provided that the product itself corresponds to the description and specifications stated on the website. We ask customers to check their order and products as soon as reasonably possible after delivery and contact us promptly if there is any material damage, fault, incorrect item or issue with the goods.
