Ingredients

  • 2 cups raw brown rice

Instructions

  • Ensure the rice is clean and free from any debris. If it's not pre-washed, rinse it under cold water and let it dry completely.
  • Place the dried brown rice into the blender or grain mill. If you're using a blender, work in batches to avoid overloading and to ensure a consistent grind.
  • Secure the lid and grind the rice on the highest setting for about 1 minute. Pause and shake the blender or stir the rice to make sure all the grains are finely ground.
  • Once the rice is ground, pour it through a fine mesh sieve or flour sifter into a bowl. This step helps remove any unground rice grains or larger particles, ensuring a fine flour texture.
  • Collect the larger grains left in the sieve and grind them again. Repeat the sifting process until you've achieved a fine flour.
  • Transfer the brown rice flour into an airtight container. Store it in a cool, dry place or in the refrigerator for a longer shelf life.

Notes

  • A high-speed blender works well for making rice flour at home, but for a finer consistency, consider using a grain mill if you have access to one.
  • Ensure the rice is thoroughly dried after washing to prevent clumping during the grinding process.
  • Homemade brown rice flour can be stored in a cool, dry place for up to two months or in the refrigerator for up to 6 months.
