Corn flour
Corn flour is a powdery ingredient made from grinding dried corn kernels. It comes from the corn plant, specifically the starchy part of the maize seed. Corn flour is commonly used in cooking and baking to thicken sauces, make cornbread, or as a coating for frying foods.
To make corn flour, the corn kernels are dried and then finely ground into a powder. This process helps retain the natural flavour and nutrients present in the corn. The end result is a versatile ingredient that can be used in various recipes to add texture and thickness.
Corn flour is often listed on food labels due to its ability to enhance the texture and flavour of food. It can be found in a wide range of products, from baked goods like cornbread and muffins to savoury dishes like corn tortillas and coatings for fried chicken. In addition to its culinary uses, corn flour is also valued for its gluten-free properties, making it a popular choice for those with gluten sensitivities.
