So, what is et de maïs?
"Et de maïs" is a French term that translates to "corn starch" in English. This fine, powdery ingredient is commonly used as a thickening agent in soups, sauces, gravies, and desserts. Made from the endosperm of the corn kernel, corn starch is gluten-free and has a neutral taste, making it a versatile addition to various recipes. When heated, it forms a smooth, glossy texture, enhancing the overall appearance of the dish. This highly refined ingredient has a long shelf life and can be stored in a cool, dry place. Its multiple uses and ease of storage make it a must-have pantry staple for any home cook or professional chef.
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.
