Sifters are used to separate combined rice and flour
Separating ingredients when cooking is critical to achieving the desired results. Although it's best to keep rice and flour stored separately, sometimes they can become unintentionally combined. Separating rice and flour is a fairly easy process due to the difference in size between the small grind of the flour and the grains of rice.
Instructions
Separating Rice and Flour
1. Put a plate underneath the sifter to catch the flour.
2. Use the scoop to transfer the flour and rice mixture into the sifter, filling the sifter approximately halfway.
3. Sift the mixture, allowing the flour to fall onto the plate. The procedure for sifting will vary by sifter, as some sifters will require a hand crank and others use a squeeze-activated lever. Flour will fall onto the plate and rice will remain in the sifter.
4. Transfer the flour and rice into separate bowls. Repeat this process until the entire mixture has been separated.
5. Rinse the rice to clean it of any remaining flour.
