Recipes and common usage

1. Tortillas: Corn flour is the main ingredient in traditional Mexican tortillas. It's mixed with water and a pinch of salt, then rolled flat and cooked on a hot griddle.

2. Tamales: Another traditional Mexican dish, tamales use corn flour for the dough that's filled with meats, cheeses, or fruits, then wrapped in a corn husk and steamed.

3. Cornbread: In American southern cooking, corn flour is used to make cornbread, a type of quick bread that is moist, slightly sweet, and has a unique crumbly texture.

4. Arepa: This is a type of bread from South American cuisine that is made from pre-cooked corn flour. It can be grilled, baked, fried, or boiled, and is typically filled with cheese, meat, or other fillings.

5. Polenta: In Italian cooking, corn flour is cooked with broth or water to make polenta, a creamy side dish often served with meats or vegetables.

6. Coating for Frying: Corn flour is often used as a coating for fried foods like chicken, fish, or vegetables. It gives the food a light, crispy texture.

7. Puddings and Desserts: Corn flour can be used in various sweet dishes like puddings, cakes, cookies, and pastries, providing a unique texture and flavor.

Remember that recipes might require either regular corn flour, which is made from whole corn kernels, or cornstarch, which is a white powder made from the starchy part of the corn kernel. They have different properties and are used differently, so it's important to use the correct type for your recipe.
