Flour or cornstarch is sometimes used as a thickening agent. Which descriptions
accurately depicts how flour thickens a sauce.
a.The gelatin in the flour forms crosslinks as the sauce cools and a mesh network
develops.
b.The starch granules absorb a great deal of water and becomes amorphous
networks of starch and water intermingled.
c.The flour emulsifies the oil in the sauce thus forming oil droplets and thickening it.
d.The flour releases carbon dioxide that form bubbles in the sauce and thickens it.
