Cornstarch is mostly flavourless, and thus adds texture rather than taste. Corn starch is a fine, white powder made from the starchy part of a corn kernel. This white powdery substance is used for many culinary, household, and industrial purposes.
*Fun Fact: Corn flour is made by finely grinding whole corn kernels, whereas cornstarch is made just from the starchy part of the corn. As a result, cornflour contains protein, fibre, starch, vitamins, and minerals, whereas cornstarch is mostly carbs.
