Cornflour, also known as cornstarch, is a fine, powdery flour made from ground corn kernels. It is a versatile ingredient commonly used as a thickening agent in various recipes.
Cornflour has a neutral flavor and a high starch content, making it ideal for thickening sauces, soups, and gravies.
It can also be used to coat meats and vegetables before frying, creating a crispy outer layer. Additionally, cornflour is often used in Asian cuisine to make batters for tempura or to coat ingredients before deep frying.
