Rice Milk Powder

Have you ever seen recipes that call for soy milk powder?  I have seen a lot of those recipes.  While we do not have allergies to soy, we like to avoid it most of the time (it mimics estrogen way too much).  For whatever reason, I have never seen it stated anywhere that one could use rice milk powder.  I did not even know there was such a thing until I was dairy free for over a year.  So this is a “just so you know” post.  There is such a thing as rice milk powder.

Rice milk powder can be used to make your own rice milk.  I never do this.  The powder can be expensive and buying rice milk already made is more affordable.  However, it is a good product to have on hand. I use it in several recipes and if one of those recipes ever shows up on here, you will know what I am talking about.  Also, this works great for vacations and hotel stays.  A few years back when I stayed at a hotel, I brought along my rice milk powder.  Right before I needed milk for breakfast cereal, I mixed a little powder with water and wah-lah!  Rice milk!

I live in a fairly large metropolitan area and rice milk powder is hard to find for me.  I have never seen it at Whole Foods (oddly, they never heard of it either-at least not my location).  Out of all the little shops I have frequented over the years, I have only seen it at one shop where the price was exorbitant.  So, your best bet at finding this at a reasonable price is at Amazon.
