Information

Corn starch is a carbohydrate polymer (polysaccharide) extracted from the endosperm of corn kernels. It appears as a fine, white to off-white powder, odorless and tasteless. As a fundamental food additive and ingredient, it functions primarily as a thickener, gelling agent, stabilizer, and anti-caking agent, valued for its ability to form viscous pastes and gels when heated and cooled in water.
