Hi,
Great recipes here!!!
Are you using store bought rice flour in the US or did you get from India. Mine always comes out dry with store bought Rice flour.
Please Help!!! I love idiyappam.
Thanks,
Subha
hi Subha : Nothing like freshly powdered rice flour.In indian store, rice flour meant for idiappam, a kerala product is available, which is relatively better. Otherwise you can make at home.Wash and soak raw rice(Pachari) for few hours.Drain very well and dry completely.Grind to a fine powder,then dry roast the powder lightly.
Hope this helps :)
Good afternoon from the UK.
Can someone please tell where I can buy an idiappam presser? We have a wood and brass hand press at the moment which seems to be getting harder and harder to use (or maybe it's because I am getting older and older). I have seen pictures of a metal version that uses a screw mechanism.
I have searched the web for an online retailer but have got nowhere so far!
Thanks.
Terry
Hi Anonymous : I am in USA and not sure of UK based online grocers.
Here is one link to online grocer

Other option, obviously is to get one when you go to India :) I am sorry, i am not able to help much here.
