]]>You don’t have to go to the store and buy ten kinds. Start slowly with just one or two recipes and go from there. Don’t be afraid of failing, especially if you’re trying your own combinations. Not all flours act the same and you’ll often need a few tries before the recipe works.
One thing you should know is that you’ll get the best results with flour blends. The one-type substitution will rarely give you the results you want. The good news is that you can buy pre-made blends for specific purposes so you don’t have to scratch your head wondering which type is good for what. For everyday baking, there are all-purpose gluten-free blends that should work most of the time.

]]>In order to kill the insect eggs that might be present, you will need to first freeze the flour. Do that for at least 48 hours and that will take care of the problem.

]]>Rice flour is a really difficult flour to make because of the consistency you need the rice to get to. It requires a special machine, and unless you want to make the investment, you’re better off buying it in the store.
All oat flour is ground up oatmeal! This you can easily do in a regular blender, so you can absolutely make it at home for probably the same price or cheaper, and have much fresher flour.
This is a tricky one. Almond flour is not so hard to make at home unless you’re using it for something like macarons which require ultrafine almond flour. To do that, blitz up almonds in a food processor or high-speed blender, sift it, and blend it again. If you don’t have access to cheap almonds though, it might be better to be it at the store.
