Carol Fenster’s New Flour Blend
I saw this posted on the internet somewhere and thought I would give it a try. I’m sorry to report that I’ve lost my link to the original source. Sorry!
I believe it is from Carol’s new book, titled: Gluten Free Quick & Easy.
1 ½ cups sorghum flour
1 ½ cups potato starch or cornstarch
1 cup tapioca flour
½ cup corn flour or almond flour or bean flour or chestnut flour

Hi Kate,
I’m new to the GF world, but I must say that I’ve used Carol Fenster’s flour mix for the past month in a few different things and have found it to be delicious. Actually, there’s really only been one thing that I was not all that happy with since I started making my own baked goods.
Just found your site, and I’m looking forward to trying out your recipes. They sound great and look delightful!
Welcome to the Land of GF, Michelle! It’s great to see that you’ve already found something that works so well for you right away! It’s taken me a bit longer to get my feet under me and this blog is helping me do that. I hope you do find some things that look good to you too! =) – Kate
Hi,
That recipe is from her book :
Gluten-Free 101 : Easy Basic Dishes without Wheat

Kate,
Just thought I’d post and say how much I’ve loved this mix. I just bought Carol’s latest, “1,000 Gluten-Free Recipes” and it seems like she’s dropped the corn flour from the mix. Who knows? Perhaps she thought it didn’t do much or that people were asking, “What’s corn flour?” This mix works well with so many things and it’s nice to have one batch around instead of several half cups of this or that.

Hi, just a quick question – what is the difference between cornflour and cornstarch? I’m not in the US and never quite sure what the names mean!
I love your blog by the way! Every recipe I have tried has worked amazingly. Hope your beautiful little girl is fitting in well to her new home?
Corn flour (Masa Harina) is a fine flour from hominy. It differs from cornstarch and corn meal in its texture and I believe in the type of corn. Most grocery stores have it in there latin foods/international section. I see Maseca brand most commonly
Very true – Thank you, Victor!
I think the concern is because the term “corn flour” means “cornstarch” in the UK. It’s a bit of a linguage foo-fah for us cross-continental recipe seekers.
