It helps add moistness to cakes, cookies, and other baked goods. It's also a key ingredient in shortbread recipes, where its fine texture produces crumbly and tender breads! Potato starch is similar to corn starch and can be used as a replacement for corn starch in many recipes. It also has a higher heat tolerance than corn starch, making it perfect for thickening sauces, soups, and stews, in addition to puddings, pie fillings, and gravies. Use 4 tsp. of potato starch to substitute for every 1 Tbsp. of corn starch; when using it to thicken a liquid, mix the potato starch with a small amount of water to make a slurry before stirring it in to your recipe to help prevent clumping. Potato starch is a native starch extracted by crushing potatoes, which release free starch in the form of a milky liquid. The starch is washed out, collected, then dried to a fine white powder that’s odorless and tasteless. If you're whipping up a dish that you plan to freeze, try swapping in potato starch, as cornstarch does not freeze well and gives the dish a spongy texture once thawed.
