Rice powder adds a nice texture when sprinkled on dishes, particularly Thai meat salads like Yam Nua and Laab Gai. It also absorbs some of the liquid, keeping the flavor in the salad. It's very good and easy to make.
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup uncooked white rice shopping list
How to make it
- Roast the uncooked white rice in a cast-iron pan or heavy wok, over low to medium heat.
- Stir frequently to evenly brown to a rich dark color. This takes about 10-15 minutes.
- If the grains are browning too quickly or unevenly, the heat is too high – lower accordingly. Slow roasting yields a more fragrant and less gritty result, as the grains brown not only on the outside, but cook through to the interior.
- The grains pick up a lot of heat. Let the rice cool before grinding to a fine powder in a clean coffee grinder. Do not grind too fine, as it should have some texture and not just be dust.
- If you're not patient the hot rice will melt the plastic lid of your grinder!
