Bake a bread from just a few ingredients that is also gluten-free - no problem with this recipe for a fluffy bread made from boiled rice.

Rice as a basic ingredient for bread is nothing new, at least in Asian countries.

Bánh Mì, a traditional Vietnamese bread that looks like a baguette but is made with rice flour instead of wheat flour, has a long tradition there.

Not only people with gluten intolerance get their money's worth with this type of bread.

Bread is also beneficial for a healthy diet.
