cornflour definition and meaning

What is "cornflour"?

Cornflour, also known as cornstarch, is a finely powdered flour made from maize kernels. It is commonly used as a thickening agent in cooking and baking due to its ability to absorb moisture and create a smooth, thick consistency. Cornflour is gluten-free, making it suitable for individuals with gluten sensitivities or celiac disease. It is often used to thicken sauces, soups, gravies, and puddings, as well as in baking to lighten the texture of cakes, cookies, and other baked goods. Additionally, cornflour can be used as a coating for frying to create a crispy exterior on foods like fried chicken or fish.
