Corn Starch Organic

Unlock the power of organic corn starch, a versatile and essential ingredient derived from the finest organic corn. This fine, white powder is a natural thickening agent that can enhance your culinary creations while being gluten-free and suitable for various dietary needs.

Corn Starch vs "Cornflour":

Corn starch and cornflour can refer to the same product, but the terminology can vary depending on the region:

• In the United States, "corn starch" typically refers to the fine, white powder made from the endosperm of corn, which is primarily used as a thickening agent in cooking and baking.

• In the United Kingdom and some other regions, "cornflour" is used to describe the same product as corn starch in the U.S.

However, it's important to note that in some countries, "cornflour" may also refer to flour made from whole ground corn (cornmeal), which is different from corn starch. So, if you're in a location where these terms are used interchangeably, they likely refer to the same fine powder used for thickening. If you’re unsure, it’s always best to check the ingredient list or product description.
