Question: 1/4 cup cornstarch equals how much flour?
Answer: Use half as much cornstarch as you would flour. For example, if the recipe calls for 2 tablespoons of flour, use 1 tablespoon of cornstarch. If the recipe calls for 1/4 cup of flour, use 1/8 cup of cornstarch. (The same is true for other starches, such as arrowroot starch, potato starch, and tapioca.)
