Morphology

The suffix '-iness' is a standard way to form a noun indicating a quality or condition from an adjective or noun.

Etymology

Flouriness starts with flour plus the ending -iness that makes it a quality. Flour came from an old word meaning 'flower' or 'the finest part' of the grain, so flouriness means having the soft, powdery quality of flour.
