Knorr Kingsford's Corn Starch 420g

I use it as a thickener for gravies, sauces and one pot dishes. I'll either make a roux (cornflour and melted butter as a thickening base) or just add some to cold water, mix, and slowly pour into the desired pot, I usually take the pot off the heat to do this to ensure no flour gets boiled and you get those tiny little dumplings. Yuck. Super cornflour though, and is excellent for what I need it for. 🙂

I feel a little stupid to be honest but think I should warn others who may make the same mistake. I was following an American recipe which required corn starch so bought this. It is in fact just corn flour, which is so much cheaper in supermarkets. I can't see any reason why you should buy this, just get it for a fraction of the price in the shops. Otherwise it seems to be great quality, although it's a Chinese import so who knows really.

I could pretend I bought this to thicken up homemade gravy and make top-notch soup, but... nah.This was purchased for one thing only: slime. I had intended to get borax, but could only find borax substitute online. With the sketchy reports regarding safety of borax, and knowing how much of this stuff my daughter and her friends had wanted to make (endlessly and repeatedly), perhaps it was just as well they didn't have any available to buy.And so, using glue, corn starch and I have no idea what else, mixed with a tiny bit of whatever else they could find to colour it, they set about making slime. And more slime. Personally, I can't stand the feel of this slime stuff but sure enough, it was very slime-like and suitably disgusting. The kids were pleased, and we now have containers with slime in every conceivable colour decorating their bedrooms. I'm not sure what happens next - is it like a room decoration? Do they model things out of it? I haven't the foggiest. As long as it avoids contact with the floor and doesn't end up dirty, fluffy and even more grotesque than it already is, then I think I can live with it.

As described. Arrived on time, did the job, value for money; great service.
