What to know about Double Horse White Puttupodi Rice Flour
A one-ingredient flour that is almost all starch
Double Horse White Puttupodi is a 500 g pack of rice flour, and rice flour is the only ingredient on the list. It is bought to make puttu, the steamed Kerala rice-and-coconut cylinder, and the pack also points to funnel-cake style cooking.
Per 100 g, which is also the serve the pack prints, you get 330 kcal, 77 g carbohydrate and 7 g protein. Sugar, fat and fibre are all declared as 0 g, and sodium is 70 mg. The pack says it holds five servings.
The front promises a soft, fluffy puttu, and the list shows only flour, so the texture comes from how it is steamed rather than from anything added. The retailer page calls it a substitute for wheat flour, which the numbers do not back up. CleanPlate scores it EB2.

Scored on protein, fibre and twelve vitamins and minerals, against the Codex and FSSAI "source" and "high" levels, per 100 g and per 100 kcal. Protein also has to supply at least 12.5% of the calories to count, and 25% for full credit.

Does Double Horse White Puttupodi Rice Flour live up to its claims?
The pack claims are plain and hold: it is rice flour and nothing else. The retailer's wheat flour substitute line is framing, since the label shows no fibre or other advantage.
- On the packHolds
“White Rice Flour for funnel cake”
The only ingredient is rice flour, so the description matches the contents.
- On the packBe careful
“New Improved Soft & Fluffy Puttu”

- Retail listingBe careful
“Substitute for wheat flour”
The retailer page calls it a healthier swap, but the pack shows 0 g fibre and 7 g protein per 100 g. It works in different dishes but the label shows no nutritional edge.
