no because cornstarch is sweet and flour is sour. I believe you use about half the amount of cornstarch when subsituting for flour.
All-purpose flour can be used as a substitute for cornstarch.
= Cornstarch Substitute = For 1 tablespoon cornstarch, substitute 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour; OR 1 tablespoon potato flour or rice flour; OR 4 teaspoons quick cooking tapioca; OR 2 teaspoons arrowroot.

hi
flour
You can substitute twice the amount of flour for the amount of cornstarch called for in most recipes. So you would use 6 tablespoons of flour, but use plain flour and not self rising.
Cream is not a good replacement for cornstarch. Instead use 2 tablespoons of flour for 1 tablespoon of cornstarch. Or you could use 4 teaspoons of quick cooking tapioca for 1 tablespoon of cornstarch.
Yes, you can. 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour equals 1 tablespoon cornstarch.
Usually it means all purpose flour... there are a few others such as arrowroot, potato flour and tapioca. All purpose flour is the most common. the trade is 1 TB cornstarch=2 TB all purpose flour
In general cornstarch is used to thicken liquids and can be replaced with flour, arrowroot, potato starch, tapioca, coconut flour and even instant mashed potato granules. For frying, flour, salt and pepper is a decent substitute for cornstarch.
No, you can't replace eggs with cornstarch in a cake recipe. The eggs make the cake light and springy. You can replace three tablespoons of cake flour with three tablespoons of cornstarch if you like. Cornstarch does help lighten the cake, but it must not be used as a substitute for eggs.
Milled flour can be used as a substitute for cornstarch. However, with any substitution, expect mild changes in flavor or texture, depending on recipe and usage.
