Is cornflour what we call corn starch (here in Canada)? I am raising 4 granchildren and they all have food allergies. The youngest is allergic to soy, milk (dairy), and eggs. I am very interested in your recipes.
Myra, from Canada, where the temps are hovering around the -2 to +3C mark these days and the g’kids are wearing jackets and mitts outdoors for play.
Hi Myra
I’m delighted you’ve found my blog. My DH is Canadian, although we’ve settled in the UK.
Yes, for the purposes of this recipe, cornflour is the same as your corn starch. I hope you have success with the recipes – do let me know how you get on!
