Reading / グルテンフリー生活

What image comes to mind when you hear the word rice flour?

In recent years, I learned that a close friend of mine has a wheat allergy and is living a gluten-free lifestyle, which involves not consuming the gluten contained in wheat, so I went to the supermarket to look for products that do not contain wheat flour.

However, most products contain wheat flour, and there are very few gluten-free products...

After that, I started researching various things, such as what kinds of products are available that use rice flour and what rice flour even is in the first place.

This time, we will focus on rice flour and introduce the differences between rice flour and wheat flour, its merits and points to note, the different types of rice flour, and recommended ways to eat it.

By the time you finish reading this article, you will be able to say that you have joined the ranks of rice flour masters! We will explain everything in detail, so please give it a read.

Hello!

I'm Nakamura, a staff member of "Kome Dreaming ~GIFT & CRAFT Mita~" (nicknamed Komedori)!

Have you ever heard of the term "gluten-free"?

I learned about gluten-free diets when a senior at university started a loosely gluten-free diet, and at first, I only had the impression that it was somehow good for my health!

This time, I will write about the methods I found easy to incorporate into my own "loose gluten-free lifestyle," including what gluten is in the first place!
