How Rice Flour Converter Works?

The Rice Flour Converter works by dividing grams of rice flour by 3.15 g per level US teaspoon. Rice flour is the heaviest common flour per spoon, 21% heavier than all-purpose flour.

  1. Check the type

    White rice flour and brown rice flour share the 3.15 g value. Glutinous (sweet) rice flour weighs slightly less.

  2. Enter grams

    Type the weight, such as 30 g for crispy tempura batter.

  3. Spoon and level

    Rice flour flows freely and levels cleanly with one knife pass.

Rice Flour Converter Formula

The Rice Flour Converter formula is teaspoons = grams of rice flour ÷ 3.15.

tsp = g ÷ 3.15 | 1 tbsp = 9.45 g | 1 US cup ≈ 151 g

  • 30 g of rice flour ÷ 9.45 = 3.17 tbsp.
  • 10 g of rice flour ÷ 3.15 = 3.17 tsp.
  • 1 cup of rice flour = 48 × 3.15 = 151.2 g.

What is Rice Flour Converter?

The Rice Flour Converter is a calculator that converts grams of rice flour into teaspoons and tablespoons. Rice flour is milled from white or brown rice and contains no gluten.

Rice flour fries crisp and absorbs less oil than wheat flour, which makes rice flour the base of tempura, Korean fried chicken and Vietnamese bánh xèo. Glutinous rice flour, made from sticky rice, forms chewy mochi and tang yuan.

What are the uses of Rice Flour Converter?

There are 4 main uses of the Rice Flour Converter: tempura and frying batters, shortbread, gluten-free blends, and Asian desserts.

  1. Frying batters

    Tempura batter for 2 servings uses 60 g of rice flour, about 6 ⅓ tbsp.

  2. Shortbread

    Scottish shortbread swaps 25 g of flour for rice flour for a sandy texture.

  3. Gluten-free blends

    Home blends use 60% rice flour by weight with starches.

  4. Asian desserts

    Mochi uses glutinous rice flour by weight with water and sugar.

Rice Flour Converter Measuring Tips

  • Rice flour is distinctly dense and heavy compared to wheat flour (~3.15 g/tsp).
  • Yields a delightful crispy snap in shortbread and tempura batters.
