Cornstarch — Frequently Asked Questions
128 grams of cornstarch is exactly 1 US cup (spoon and level). Cornstarch is one of the more consistent powders to measure by cup.
In the UK and Australia, "cornflour" = cornstarch (the pure white starch). In the US, "corn flour" can mean fine-ground corn, which is a completely different product with protein and fibre. Always check which one your recipe means based on the country of origin.
Use 1 tablespoon (8g) of cornstarch per 1 cup (237ml) of liquid for a medium-thick sauce. For a thicker sauce or pie filling, use 2 tablespoons (16g) per cup of liquid. Always mix cornstarch with cold water first to form a slurry, then add to hot liquid.
Yes. Use half the amount of cornstarch as flour. Replace 2 tablespoons (16g) of flour with 1 tablespoon (8g) of cornstarch. Cornstarch produces a clearer, glossier sauce than flour-thickened sauces.
Cornstarch has no gluten and forms a very hard, thin shell when fried. It inhibits moisture absorption and creates a crunchier coating than flour alone. Many fried chicken and Asian-style recipes use 100% cornstarch or a cornstarch-flour mixture for maximum crunch.
Yes. Cornstarch is naturally gluten-free and is a common component in gluten-free flour blends. It improves texture and helps mimic the structure that gluten provides in regular flour.
