A Staple Across Asia
India is the world's second largest rice producer and the largest exporter. Rice flour is an everyday ingredient in South Indian and East Indian kitchens, used for dishes such as appam, idiyappam, puttu, rice rotis (akki roti), modaks, pithas and crispy snacks like murukku and chakli. In Japan, glutinous rice flour becomes mochi, and across Southeast Asia rice flour is used for noodles, dumplings and sweets.
