With this handy rice flour shaker, you can easily distribute a thin, even layer of rice flour over your proofing basket, dough, or work surface. Rice flour is often used for baking sourdough and artisanal breads because it absorbs less moisture than regular flour. As a result, the dough is less likely to stick to the proofing basket, and the basket's characteristic patterns are showcased more beautifully. The fine perforations ensure accurate distribution without waste. Made of durable stainless steel and easy to clean.
