Pure, organic, stone-ground white rice flour — the clean base for South India's most beloved dishes. No bleaching, no additives, no enrichment. Just certified organic rice, stone-milled to a fine, consistent flour that gives idlis, dosas and murukku their authentic texture.
What is Organic Rice Flour?
Rice flour is milled from white rice after the bran layer (brown rice) is removed. While it is lower in fibre and micronutrients than brown or red rice flour, its clean, neutral flavour and fine texture make it indispensable for South Indian cooking. Dhatu's rice flour is milled from certified organic white rice using stone cold-milling, avoiding the high-heat processing of commercial rice flour that can alter texture and flavour.

How to Use Rice Flour
- Idli and dosa batter — 4:1 ratio of rice flour to urad dal; ferment 8–12 hours
- Murukku and chakli — Mix with butter and spices; extrude and deep-fry for crisp snacks
- Modak and kozhukattai — Steamed rice flour dumplings with jaggery-coconut filling
- Gluten-free thickener — Add to gravies and soups for a clean-tasting, neutral thickener
- Rice flour roti — Knead with boiling water; cook on a hot tawa for thin, crisp flatbread
Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, in origin and farming practice. Organic rice flour is milled from paddy grown without synthetic pesticides, herbicides or chemical fertilisers, reducing chemical residue in the final flour. The milling process (stone cold-milling vs high-speed roller) also affects texture: stone-ground rice flour has a slightly coarser, more natural texture ideal for traditional South Indian preparations.
Rice flour is the base for a wide range of South Indian and pan-Asian dishes: idli and dosa batter (blended with urad dal), murukku and chakli (fried snacks), modak and kozhukattai (steamed sweets), hoppers (Sri Lankan appa), noodles and rice pancakes. It is also used as a gluten-free thickener in gravies and as a coating for fried foods.
White rice flour has minimal fibre (0.4g/100g) as the bran layer is removed during milling. This makes it easily digestible but less satiating than whole grain flours. For everyday use, we recommend pairing rice flour dishes with fibre-rich accompaniments (vegetable sambar, coconut chutney) or blending with ragi or brown rice flour for added nutrition.
Yes. Rice contains no gluten and is one of the most hypoallergenic grains available. Our rice flour is processed in a facility that handles other grains — if you have a severe gluten allergy, check with us about cross-contamination protocols. For typical gluten sensitivity, rice flour is a safe and widely-used alternative.
