It's also a gravy ingredient. Pies don't have ownership of corn starch -- but it is an essential component to the texture of the pie. It also makes a very real contribution to the make up of other very tasty foods...and some not so tasty and not edible things as well. So it can both be called an ingredient in general and be identified as an ingredient to a specific recipe. <BR/><BR/>I'd like to see more Christians step beyond listing love and self-sacrifice on their ingredients list without moving on to the actual cooking process. That's where I think the problem lies.<BR/><BR/>Just my two cents...first visit to your blog thanks to the cue from Ellen. Very enjoyable!
