Ten kinds of rice flours were prepared by several milling methods including hammer mill, pin mill and blade mill. The rice flours were mixed with vital gluten (8:2) and used for bread making. Mean particle size of the rice flours ranged from 40.9 μm to 407.2 μm and damaged starch content from 6.1% to 27.1%. Specific volume of the breads ranged from1.98 mL/g to 3.82 mL/g. Correlation of rice flour properties and bread qualities were analyzed. Negative correlation was found between amount of
