Notes

  • Homemade rice flour keeps well for about 6 months if handled properly.
  • You can dry roast the rice flour in bulk and store it like how I did. Else you can roast it at that instant when you are making snacks. But roasting and storing extends shelf life.
  • If you are grinding in bulk give it to a mill so that the grinding is even and fine too. I grind it at home using a normal mixer so had to grind it for more time in batches.You can grind it in bulk and store it for around 6 months if handled properly.
  • Use a dry spoon every time.
