                            Boiled rice has more indigestible starch which is a good prebiotic , a tremendous benefit to the gut and your immunity. This makes boiled rice a far healthier option not only compared to raw rice but other grains as well. This benefit is best utilised by boiled rice used as fermented rice..

                                   Cornstarch Is the Secret to the Crispiest Fried Chicken So how exactly does it work? When paired with all-purpose flour, cornstarch helps prevent gluten development, which makes the flour coating crispier, and absorb moisture (from the frying and the chicken), which also means a crispier coating.

If you already have a favorite fried chicken recipe, try replacing a quarter of the flour with cornstarch.

                            Cornstarch: When added to marinades, cornstarch provides a light coating to meat that protects it slightly from the intense heat of the wok. This helps prevent overcooking and toughening of the outer layers of meat.

                            If you've ever had chicken kara'age (japanese fried chicken) or korean fried chicken, they use potato starch. It gives a light but VERY crispy crust to the morsel you are cooking..

                            Using cornstarch to fry foods, however, will get you the golden color and extreme crunchiness. This is because cornstarch is almost completely starch whereas flour has a lower starch content because it also has gluten. Some recipes might even use only cornstarch to ensure the food gets ultimate crisp status..
