How much cornstarch do you put in water?
The amount of cornstarch you put in water depends on the desired consistency of the mixture. For a thin consistency, use 1 tablespoon of cornstarch per cup of water. For a medium consistency, use 2 tablespoons of cornstarch per cup of water. For a thick consistency, use 3 tablespoons of cornstarch per cup of water.
To make cornstarch water, simply mix the cornstarch and water in a small saucepan until the cornstarch is dissolved. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 1-2 minutes, or until the mixture has thickened.
Cornstarch water can be used as a thickener for soups, sauces, and gravies. It can also be used to make a simple glaze for baked goods.
Here are some tips for using cornstarch water:
* Always mix the cornstarch and water together before adding them to the hot liquid. This will help to prevent the cornstarch from clumping.
* Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly. This will help to prevent the cornstarch from scorching.
* Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 1-2 minutes, or until the mixture has thickened. Simmering for too long can cause the cornstarch to break down and lose its thickening power.
* Cornstarch water can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. When ready to use, simply reheat the mixture until it is hot and bubbly.
