Rice flour has been found to be one of the most
suitable cereal grain flours for preparing foods for celiac patients.
The suitability of rice flour is attributed to its
low levels of prolamins, since the peptides released from
the breakdown of the prolamins act as toxins for individuals
suffering from celiac disease. As a result cereals
containing prolamins (wheat, rye, barley and oats)
cannot be consumed and the only preventive measure is
to keep the diet of the celiac patient as gluten free as possible.
Since rice possesses unique nutritional, hypoallergenic,
colourless and bland taste properties, its use
in baby foods, puddings and especially in development
of foods for gluten intolerant patients has been increasing.
However, the use of rice flour in breadmaking
is still limited because rice proteins are unable to retain
the gas produced during the fermentation process.
