Cassava starch is relatively free from fibre. It is obtained by wet extraction from tubers , while flour is obtained by direct drying of the tuber pieces and pulverising Typically starch contains 98% starch and less than 0.5% fibre while it is around 75% starch and 1-3% fibre in the flour.
Casava starch, while present in casava flour, is more effective in its refined form due to higher concentration... It should be noted that in order for casava flour to be used as an effective thickener it will need to be mixed with fat to form either a burre manie or roux
What is the difference between tapioca dextrin and maize starch
Maize flour is made from maize starch. The starch is the ingredient, the flour is the product.
Corn starch is made from corn. Tapioca is made from cassava root.
They have different thickening properties. It really depends on what you're adding it too.
You can use tapioca flour in some cookie recipes. It does not act like wheat flour, so only use tapioca flour if the recipe specifically says to.
Tapioca Dextrin is used in the food industry as a carrier for flavorings and colors in dry preparations; and in liquids, to produce bland, low viscosity solutions and as a bland bulking agent.

You can cook cookies without flour. The recipe may call for a different type of flour, such as rice flour or tapioca flour.
There is no difference between plain flour and all-purpose flour. They are one and the same. All-purpose (plain) flour does not contain the salt and baking soda that self-rising flour has.
No, they are not the same. They are both starches and can be used as thickening agents, but they come from different plants. Each has different thickening capabilities and they have different flavors.
