Heera Corn Flour (10/80) – 4x3kg

Description

Heera Corn Flour: fine maize starch for thickening and crisping

Heera Corn Flour is a fine, white maize starch, not to be confused with cornmeal or masa flour. The 4X3KG pack means four 3kg bags, and the 10/80 numbers are the supplier case configuration. It is a smooth, flavour neutral thickener that also lightens batters and gives fried food a crisp finish.

Key Features

• Four 3kg bags per case for kitchens that thicken and batter in volume
• Pure maize starch that thickens sauces, gravies, soups and custards
• Blend with cold water into a slurry first, then stir into hot liquid to avoid lumps
• Adds crispness to coatings and a light texture to cakes and biscuits

Uses

Mix a spoonful with a little cold water before adding it to a simmering sauce, so it thickens evenly. Use it in custards and puddings, dust it over food for a crisp fried coating, or blend a little into sponge mixes for a softer crumb.

Storage

Keep in a cool, dry place. Once opened, reseal or decant into an airtight container to keep the starch dry.
