Can sweet potato flour replace corn starch?
Yes, but the cooking effect of sweet potato powder will be slightly worse than that of corn starch. The water absorption of sweet potato powder is not as good as that of corn starch, so the thickening juice made of sweet potato powder is not delicious, but when cooking some dishes, such as fried pork chops, it is enough to wrap pork chops with sweet potato powder or corn starch, and the difference in finished products will not be too great.

Sweet potato powder is a powder made of sweet potato starch, which is dark in color and coarse in particle size. Sweet potato flour, like corn starch, will be sticky after being dissolved in water and heated.

Sweet potato flour can generally be used to make sweet potato vermicelli, yam jiaozi, sweet potato omelet, sweet potato cold noodles and other delicacies. Jiaozi is a traditional snack in qingtian county, Lishui City, Zhejiang Province. Local people will treat jiaozi as a delicious snack on festivals such as Dragon Boat Festival and Spring Festival.
