What it is

Yellow degermed corn flour is a finely ground powder made from dried corn kernels. The germ, which contains oil and nutrients, is removed before milling. This process extends the shelf life of the flour.

Why it's used

It is used as a thickening agent and a base ingredient in many processed foods. Manufacturers add it to products like baked goods, cereals, and snack foods for texture and structure.

Health notes

Yellow degermed corn flour is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA. It is a source of carbohydrates. International bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated similar corn-derived ingredients. No significant health concerns are associated with its consumption at typical dietary levels.

Allergen info

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