So, what is amidon d maïs?
Amidon de maïs, also known as cornstarch, is a fine, white powder derived from the endosperm of corn kernels. This versatile ingredient is commonly used as a thickening agent in soups, sauces, and gravies, as well as a binding agent in baked goods and desserts. Cornstarch is gluten-free, making it an excellent alternative to wheat flour for those with gluten sensitivities. Additionally, it has a neutral flavor and does not discolor when cooked, making it a great choice for dishes where a clear or light-colored sauce or filling is desired. Due to its easy availability and numerous applications, cornstarch is a staple in many kitchens around the world.
We've built a vegan ingredients scanner that classifies food ingredients as "vegan", "non-vegan", or "potentially vegan".
It allows you to avoid non-vegan ingredients - just take a picture of a product's ingredient list, and the app tells you if the product is vegan or not.
