Thanks for your comment about my arrowroot wafers! A question for you: I've seen other flours on your posts such as besan and maida - can besan be used for baking sweets like biscuits or cookies? And is maida very different from American all-purpose wheat flour? Thanks!

Dear Tangled noodle,

BESAN- is a south asian word for gluten-free flour made from chickpeas also known as gram flour.

It is used widely to make a lot of Indian sweets. I am not too sure if you can use it to bake cookies en biscuits.

MAIDA- is just Indian word for all-purpose flour, it is made from wheat but is bleached.

I hope I helped.

Fried rice looks yummy..how different is japanese rice from regular indian rice in taste and texture?

Dear LG,

Japanese rice grains are very short and have a unique sticky property unlike Indian rice.

I hope I helped.
