Organic Degerminated Yellow Corn Flour

Organic degerminated yellow corn flour is made from dried yellow corn kernels that have had the germ removed. This process removes the corn oil and germ, which helps extend the flour's shelf life. The remaining starchy endosperm is then ground into a fine flour.

Corn flour is used as a thickening agent in sauces, gravies, and soups. It also serves as a binder in processed foods like breaded meats and snacks, providing a crispy texture when fried or baked. It is commonly found in frozen appetizers, breaded poultry products, and baked goods.

Organic degerminated yellow corn flour is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as a food ingredient. It is a source of carbohydrates and some fiber. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated corn flour and similar corn-derived ingredients. Evidence does not suggest adverse health effects from typical dietary consumption.
