White cornmeal (maize flour)

Also called: Bur galley cad (Soomaali) · Farine de maïs blanc (Français) · دقيق الذرة البيضاء (العربية)

Good to know

Look for white cornmeal or maize flour (the kind for soor or ugali) at African, Caribbean and Latin grocers; don’t confuse it with cornstarch, a fine thickener. Fine meal cooks up smooth; coarser meal gives a firmer, grainier soor.
