Phoenix Glutinous Rice Flour - 500G

Phoenix glutinous rice flour, 500g. Fine white flour milled from sticky rice, for chewy Asian sweets and dumplings. Pastry shops use it for mochi, tang yuan and nian gao. The name trips people. Glutinous means the sticky, elastic bite the flour takes once you cook it, not wheat gluten. The flour is naturally gluten-free. That chew is why you reach for it instead of a wheat flour. The 500g bag is a retail pack, so a home baker making those sweets uses the same one. Keep it sealed, cool and dry. The origin is on the pack if a menu note needs it.
