So, what is rijstebloem?
Rijstebloem is a versatile food ingredient that is derived from finely milled rice grains. This pale, powdery flour is a popular choice in gluten-free baking as it provides a light and airy texture to cakes, breads and other baked goods. It is also commonly used as a thickening agent in soups, sauces and gravies due to its ability to create a smooth, silky consistency. Rijstebloem has a neutral taste profile and is a great alternative for those who are sensitive to wheat or other gluten-containing grains. Additionally, it is a good source of carbohydrates and is low in fat and sodium, making it a healthy addition to your diet.
We've built a vegan ingredients scanner that classifies food ingredients as "vegan", "non-vegan", or "potentially vegan".
It allows you to avoid non-vegan ingredients - just take a picture of a product's ingredient list, and the app tells you if the product is vegan or not.
