The difference between cassava flour and raw flour:

1. The sources of cassava flour and raw flour are different

Although their appearances are similar, their sources are fundamentally different. There are many raw materials for raw flour, such as corn, wheat, potatoes and sweet potatoes, and a large amount of raw flour can be extracted.

2. The uses of cassava flour and raw flour are different.

The uses of cassava flour and raw flour are also very different. Cassava flour will become transparent after being heated and has certain toughness, which can be used for processing a variety of foods. Raw flour is often used as a condiment in life. When cooking or making soup, raw flour will play a role in collecting juice. When frying some foods, raw flour can also be wrapped on the outer layer of ingredients.

Cassava flour can't be eaten raw because it contains hydrocyanic acid, which is a natural toxin that will harm human health. It will disappear after encountering high temperature above 7 degrees, so people must cook cassava flour before eating it, while raw cassava flour can't be eaten.
