Review: Great for canning but I've found a UK alternative (cheaper & non GMO) - I have got into canning food at home and my research led me to purchase a pack of this Clearjel cornstarch product. It works very well - very similar to the job done by bog standard cornflour but remains stable during the intense heat of the pressure canning process. However I was frustrated to find it out of stock when I came to buy a second pack. This led me to research what exactly Clearjel is. Turns out it is something called 'waxy maize starch'. Apparently beloved by body builders and so I purchased a pack of Peak Supplements waxy maize powder and gave it a try in some vegetable soup. Worked like a dream! Time will tell if it stands up to lengthy storage and then reheating, but a jar reheated, kept its thickness perfectly. Review: HOORAY! I can now get this in the UK. - Whoo hoo! I can now get this in the UK, without asking friends to bring it back from the USA when I order it online and have it sent to their hotel! My friends love you for this. Tops for canning pie filling, cordials, and thickening pancake syrups. Mant thanks please keep stocking it in the UK. Having purchased in desperation other modified cornstarch thickeners hoping they would do the same job and was disappointed I am very very pleased to be able to grab this product over here ! Since my initial purchase I have purchased 4 more lots... it is great stuff ! ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B009C9BSGK | | ASIN | B009C9BSGK | | Age Range Description | All Ages | | Brand Name | Hoosier Hill Farm | | Coin Variety 1 | Corn Starch | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars (9,106) | | Customer reviews | 4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars (9,106) | | Diet Type | Vegetarian | | Is discontinued by manufacturer | No | | Item Package Weight | 0.76 Kilograms | | Item Weight | 1 Pounds | | Item model number | HHF81 | | Manufacturer | Willshire Europe | | Manufacturer | Willshire Europe | | Material Features | Gluten Free | | Model Number | HHF81 | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of Pieces | 1 | | Part Number | HHF81 | | Product Dimensions | 12.7 x 12.7 x 15.24 cm; 453.59 g | | Set Name | single | | Size | 10.31 x 10.99 x 16.79 cm | | Specialty | Gluten Free, Halal, Kosher Certified | | UPC | 853881004267 | | Unit Count | 1.0 pounds | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Hoosier Hill Farm - **Item weight:** 1 Pounds - **Material feature:** Gluten Free - **Speciality:** Gluten Free, Halal, Kosher Certified - **Unit count:** 1.0 pounds ## Images ![Corn Starch Instant Clear-Jel for Canning and Baking - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51bwGuwlinL.jpg) ![Corn Starch Instant Clear-Jel for Canning and Baking - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51uQYMbQPrL.jpg) ![Corn Starch Instant Clear-Jel for Canning and Baking - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81L4nB90isL.jpg) ![Corn Starch Instant Clear-Jel for Canning and Baking - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81SgUvKqzfL.jpg) ![Corn Starch Instant Clear-Jel for Canning and Baking - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81fgO1BgqvL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: is this product actually clear when it sets?** A: It thickens the liquid to make a sauce, so it becomes the colour your sauce will be. **Q: Please may we ask if this is an 'instant' thickener?
