Gluten-Free Flour Blend

Ingredients

• 6 cups oriental rice flour (Thai)
• 2 cups potato starch (not flour)
• 1 cup tapioca starch

Directions

1. 1

   Blend well and store in an air tight container.

2. 2

   When converting recipes, substitute equal measurements, and add 1 teaspoons xanthan gum or guar gum per cup of flour in the recipe.

3. 3

   Yeast containing recipes must use xanthan gum, as guar gum interferes with the action of the yeast.

4. 4

   Oriental (Thai) rice flour is a finer texture than the flour from health food stores. It is more like cornstarch in texture. It will give better results, without the gritty texture common to gluten free baking. At this time, Thai rice flour is available on amazon.com.
