Question

Is cornstarch made from corn flour?

Community Answer

Cornstarch is also called corn flour. It comes from corn. It's often called cornstarch more often so as to avoid confusion with regular flour, which is also a thickening agent, but made from wheat.

Question

Can I use cornstarch paste to make slime?

Community Answer

Cornstarch creates a really cool non-Newtonian paste, actually! Pour cornstarch into a bowl and slowly add water, mixing with your hands until it feels nearly solid while mixing but appears liquid. It's quite messy for a "slime" but so much fun!
