Argo 100% Pure Corn Starch – 16 oz (Pack of 2) – Gluten-Free Thickener for Sauces & Desserts

Argo 100% Pure Corn Starch: Clear, glossy thickening for everyday cooking

Argo Corn Starch is a trusted kitchen staple designed to thicken sauces, gravies, and fillings while preserving the natural flavors of your ingredients. This two-pack includes two 16-ounce containers, giving you a ready supply for weeknight dinners and weekend baking alike. The formulation delivers noticeable thickening power without overpowering taste, helping your dishes achieve a polished, restaurant-worthy finish.

One of the standout features is the strong thickening capability: it has twice the powder strength of an equivalent amount of flour. When substituting in recipes, use half as much Argo Corn Starch as you would flour, and remember to mix it with a cold liquid before adding to hot mixtures to prevent lumps. For the most effective thickening and clarity, bring the mixture to a full boil after combining it with the liquid.

What makes Argo stand out

The starch nearly vanishes into the dish, leaving a clean palate that lets herbs, spices, and other flavors shine through. It is also gluten-free and free from common allergens like MSG, soy, milk, eggs, peanuts, and tree nuts, which broadens its versatility in mixed or multiple-diet kitchens.

Popular uses you can rely on

Use Argo Corn Starch to thicken a variety of preparations with a smooth, cohesive texture:

• Sauces and gravies that benefit from a glossy, translucent finish
• Pie fillings, puddings, custards, and cake fillings for a silky mouthfeel
• Stir-fries and glazes that gain a cohesive sheen
• Creamy soups and reductions that stay velvety without clumping
• Roast pan gravies and pan sauces where a clear thicken is desirable
