Best Answer

Corn starch is used for thickening sauces or soups. One adds it to a dish by bringing the liquid to a boil and then mixing equal parts of corn starch and ice cold water. When the starch is dissolved add it to the dish while stirring rapidly. Be careful not to add to much or the dish will get unpleasant lumps.

Can you use corn starch instead of corn flour for totillas?

Although corn flour and corn starch derive from the same part of the plant, they are NOT the same thing, and in cooking, they behave very differently. If you use corn starch to make tortillas, you'll get an inedible glob of goo. On the other hand, if you use corn flour in place of corn starch, you'll get gruel instead of gravy or sauce or pudding.
