Best Answer

corn flour There are several methods for thickening sauces. One is to add a roux that is a thin paste made by combining flour with melted butter or heated oil (any type of fat actually). Another way is to add milk and heat it slowly over time to reduce it. Or you can simply reduce it if it contains fatty ingredients already. Corn starch or arrowroot can be added to thicken a sauce, but it is best to mix these with cold water, milk, or other liquid before adding to the sauce, and to add it to the sauce while stirring and in small amounts until the desired thickness is achieved. Most of these methods will lighten the color of your sauce, or whiten it, with the exception of arrowroot and simple reduction.
