It couldn't be easier to make rice flour at home. Add your rice to your high-powered blender. Something like a Vitamix, Blendtec, or maybe even the Nutribullet will work. Try whatever blender you have first, it may work just fine. But usually, to grind up rice and other grains effectively into flour, a more powerful blender is needed. Or of course, if you have a mill just use that.

Start off blending with the lowest setting then gradually crank it up to the highest setting. Allow it to blend for 30 to 45 seconds on high. It should turn into a nice fine rice flour.

There you go, easy as that.

I always store my rice flour in a large mason jar. It will last a few months at room temp or even longer in the fridge. Use this rice flour in any recipe that calls for rice flour. I always use it when making my sourdough bread.
