let’s face this. i guess almost everyone has faced this issue of planning some yummy recipe, but eventually cancel it because you may be missing one of the key flour. i use to have this problem long before. even though i personally buy all my flours from a grocery shop in bulk, but i do not limit myself in preparing some snacks or dish, because i am running low with a required flour. i always have a backup plan for such scenario’s and i make it freshly at home whenever i need it. the texture may not be the same as you get it in the grocery shop, but it should be more than sufficient for most of our recipes. the other advantage is the no use of chemical and preservatives in it and thus making it more organic.

furthermore, i would add some more tips, suggestions and variations to how to make rice flour, besan flour, maida at home. firstly, to get a fine rice and besan flour your mixer grinder plays a major role in it. your blade has to be sharp to get a fine texture. also, you need to choose a fine sieve to get the fine texture. secondly, with plain flour or maida, you may not get the same white coloured as you get in the store. basically the store-bought is bleached with the chemical to get a white colour, whereas in this it is a wheatish in colour. however, it should be more than sufficient for any recipes. lastly, store these in an airtight container for longer shelf life. avoid any moisture contact as it may spoil it.
