Rice starch is a natural polymeric carbohydrate and the main component of rice. In its native form it is an insoluble white powder consisting of both amylose and amylopectin. Just like rice it can differ greatly in composition and structure.

Rice starch granules are the smallest among all commercially available food starches, with granule sizes in the range of about 2 to 8 micron, much smaller than that of commonly used starch like corn or tapiona starch.

After gelatinization. It has a delicate structure and tastes like cream. It is an ideal fat subsititude.
