Gluten-Free Flours In India

Hello! We moved to Hyderabad, India, a few months ago. I'm finally starting to feel settled but I'm having trouble with the names of some of the flours and figuring out which ones are wheat flour and which aren't. I know that besan is a lentil flour and jowar is sorghum. I've also found corn flour and rice flour. I've heard that millet and buckwheat flours are available but I don't know the local names for them. Can anyone tell me? And are there any other flours I should be looking for? Thank you!

This could maybe help with some different flours.

      gluten-free Oatmeal

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Oats naturally contain a protein called avenin, which is similar to the gluten proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. You may fall into this category, and eliminating them is the best way to figure this out. Some people substitute gluten-free quinoa flakes for oats if they want a hot cereal substitute. If you are interested in summaries of scientific publications on the topic of oats and celiac disease, we have an entire category dedicated to it which is here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/oats-and-celiac-disease-are-they-gluten-free/
