One of the world's favorite staple foods may be just what you need to develop all-new products or reformulate existing recipes.

Create with the consumer-preferred texturizing option
Rice starches and flours help meet consumer demands for healthier, clean label products with simple ingredients. According to Ingredion's proprietary research, 78% of North American consumers find rice flour an acceptable texturizer.1 In addition, rice has high consumer awareness and is seen by consumers as healthy.

Get the functional performance you demand
Native functional rice starches and flours provide versatile functionality, including excellent shelf life stability in ambient, refrigerated or frozen conditions. And these starches and flours can also shine in specialized applications. For example, rice flours improve yield, purge and texture compared to rice or potato starch or phosphate in marinated tumbled chicken. These solutions can also help remove and replace unwanted ingredients such as titanium dioxide for whitening in confectionery coatings, and enable non-corn labeling for pet food, baby meals, snacks and gluten-free baked goods.

Waxy rice
Waxy rice mimics fat well for creamy, spreadable, smooth results in savory applications. It can also help you achieve light crispiness in snacks and coatings, and it can create an appealing mochi texture. Highly stable in high-moisture applications, it also increases water-holding capacity in meats.

Regular rice
Regular rice when dispersed in a high-moisture application is opaque, white and smooth, making it ideal for low-fat applications. Plus, it can help reduce oil in fried coatings and snacks, as well as provide slight gelling in dairy products.
