Corn Flour

Corn flour is a type of flour that’s milled from dried whole corn kernels. It’s considered a whole grain flour because it contains all parts of the corn kernel, including the hull, germ, and endosperm. The texture of corn flour is fine and smooth, similar to whole wheat flour.

Corn flour is usually yellow, but it can also be white or blue, depending on the variety of corn used. It has a distinctive, earthy, sweet flavor when cooked, which makes it popular in baked goods and also as a coating for fried foods.

One of the benefits of corn flour is its nutritional profile. It’s rich in protein, vitamins, minerals, starch, and fiber3. This makes it a healthier alternative to some other types of flour.

However, it’s important to note that while corn flour is versatile, it may not be suitable for all recipes. For example, recipes that require a specific amount of gluten may not turn out as expected when using corn flour, as corn is naturally gluten-free.

In conclusion, corn flour is a versatile and nutritious ingredient that can be used in a variety of dishes. From baking to frying, it’s a great addition to any kitchen pantry. So, the next time you’re cooking or baking, why not give corn flour a try?
