What it is

Yellow corn flour is a finely ground powder made from dried yellow corn kernels. It is a whole grain product, meaning it contains the bran, germ, and endosperm of the corn kernel. The milling process grinds the entire kernel into a flour.

Why it's used

Yellow corn flour is used as a thickening agent in sauces, gravies, and soups. It also adds a slightly sweet, corny flavor and a yellow hue to baked goods like cornbread, muffins, and pancakes. It can be found in some processed snacks and batters for fried foods.

Health notes

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. The Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA) has evaluated corn flour and has not specified a numerical acceptable daily intake (ADI). No significant health controversies are associated with its typical consumption.

Allergen info

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