Rice starch is a type of starch that is extracted from rice grains. It is a carbohydrate-based powder that consists of small granules. Starch is the primary energy storage molecule in plants, and it serves as a source of nutrition for humans as well.
Rice starch is obtained by processing rice grains, typically by washing, grinding, and separating the starch from other components such as protein, fiber, and fats. The resulting starch is a white, odorless, and tasteless powder.
Rice starch is characterized by very small granules in the range of 2-8 μm, being much smaller than those of other cereals, tubers and roots, such as corn and potato. Its granule size is comparable to the size of fat globules, therefore ideally suited to mimic a full bodied fatty mouthfeel. It provides creamy textures and can serve as natural fat replacer.
