    Always use cold water for a cornstarch slurry guys. Cooking 101.

      Any particular reason? I'm somewhat new to baking and haven't used corn starch in any home cooking or baking

      It can get clumpy and not mix. I have super fine cornstarch (Bob's mills) and I can mix it into cold and warm I noticed.

    You can use fruit pectin as a substitute for the corn starch as a thickening agent

    I just discovered your channel week ago and made the rainbow cake from another channel because u dont have it and made your buttercream recipe. First time i could say that i made the one that i really like because maybe it uses 2 cups of butter and a salt?and made your brownies today and it was a hit. And i also like the way u vlog. It's like real cooking. Raw and unfiltered. I will try your vanilla cake for my husband's birthday and your peanut buttercream. It''s like i found my newest go-to when it comes to baking. Keep it up and u are underrated. Hoping to more subs. U deserve it

    Earlier today I was quickly googling how to make this for some muffins I wanted to bake and the instructions did not include that tsp of water to dissolve the cornstarch. My jam was ruined! 😢 I wish I had watched your channel instead!! I will try again tomorrow 😊

    I made it and when I put the cornstarch and water in it. The cornstarch was in chunks, it mix it but for me and tastes good but the chunks just messes it up. I won’t do this again. Maybe I would use a liquid cornstarch syrup.

      No, cornstarch is needed to thicken.

    • @iluminameluna
      @iluminameluna 2 роки тому

      Regular wheat flour takes too long to lose its raw taste, even after it's started to thicken. By the time it tastes better, your strawberries, or any other fruit, will have lost its amazing flavor and the flour will have overpowered even the light texture of your filling.
      Just no. No flour for thickening fruit filings! Try arrowroot if you don't want, or can't, use corn starch.
