Cornstarch is a fine, white powder milled from the starchy endosperm of corn. It tastes neutral with a silky, squeaky feel and forms a clear, glossy gel when heated in liquid. Cooks use it to thicken sauces, soups, custards, stir-fries, and pie fillings, making a cold slurry first to prevent lumps.
