What it is

Yellow corn flour is a finely ground powder made from dried yellow corn kernels. It is a common grain product used in many food applications. The milling process separates the germ and bran from the starchy endosperm, which is then ground into flour.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use yellow corn flour as a thickening agent and a base ingredient in various foods. It provides texture and structure, and its natural yellow color can contribute to the appearance of products. It is commonly found in baked goods, cereals, snack foods like popcorn, and as a coating for fried items.

Health notes

Yellow corn flour is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. It is a source of carbohydrates and some fiber. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated corn flour and related products. Evidence does not suggest adverse health effects from typical dietary intake.

Allergen info

Corn is not one of the nine major allergens identified by the FDA. It does not contain gluten.
