Pages: 1 Corn meal vs corn starch or corn flour       #337976 - 11/11/08 09:33 PM Edit Reply Quote glasgowgirl Reged: 09/01/08 Posts: 413 Loc: Vancouver, Canada OK forgive my ignorance of all things corn but is corn starch and corn flour the same thing? Also is corn meal the gritty stuff? Can I use all three interchangably? -------------------- Stable IBS D Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator     Re: Corn meal vs corn starch or corn flour       #337981 - 11/12/08 04:01 AM Edit Reply Quote Fen Reged: 03/01/08 Posts: 574 Loc: Central NY Corn starch is very starchy and usually used as more of a binder/thickener - such as in gravy. Corn meal is the gritty stuff used to make corn bread, polenta, etc. These two cannot be used interchangeably. I'm not positive what corn flour is, but my guess would be really finely ground corn meal. Sorry I can't help much there! -------------------- IBS-C Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator     Re: Corn meal vs corn starch or corn flour       #338019 - 11/12/08 06:52 PM Edit Reply Quote glasgowgirl Reged: 09/01/08 Posts: 413 Loc: Vancouver, Canada Thanks for the help - I never came across corn starch etc in Scotland -------------------- Stable IBS D Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator     Pages: 1
