Farina di Riso, or rice flour, is a finely milled flour made from ground rice, commonly used in Asian and Italian cuisines. Naturally gluten-free, it serves as a versatile alternative for those with celiac disease or gluten intolerance. Rice flour is rich in carbohydrates, providing a quick source of energy, and contains small amounts of B vitamins, including thiamine and niacin. It’s low in fat and sodium, making it a heart-friendly ingredient when incorporated into balanced meals. Popular in desserts, soups, and gluten-free bread recipes, it has a light texture ideal for thickening sauces or creating delicate pastries. However, its high glycemic index may not be ideal for individuals seeking to manage blood sugar levels. Choosing whole grain rice flour can enhance its nutritional profile by adding more fiber, aiding digestion and promoting longer satiety.
