Is Sweet Rice Flour = White Rice Flour or Rice Flour
NO! Sweet Rice Flour is a very sticky (glutinous = like glue but contains NO gluten). White Rice is not the same thing and much less sticky. White Rice Flour can not be used as a binding flour the way the Sweet Rice Flour can. Do NOT substitute white rice for sweet rice as they are not the same! You can make white rice flour in a similar way, however, it is used totally differently in gluten free baking. See above for more details
