Corn flour is a fine, smooth powder milled from corn. It has a pale white colour and a light, silky texture that blends easily into liquids without leaving lumps. In the kitchen, corn flour is most often used as a thickener. Stir it into gravies, sauces, soups and casseroles to give them a smooth, glossy finish. It is a common ingredient in stir-fry sauces, helping to coat vegetables and meat evenly. Corn flour is also used in baking, where it can be mixed with other flours to give cakes and biscuits a lighter, softer crumb. To use, mix corn flour with a little cold water or stock to form a smooth paste before adding it to hot liquid. This prevents clumping and helps the sauce thicken evenly as it heats. Add it gradually towards the end of cooking, stirring well, until the desired consistency is reached. Store corn flour in a cool, dry place, in a sealed container or resealable bag once opened. Keeping it away from moisture will help maintain its fine, free-flowing texture for everyday cooking and baking.
