Substitutes for Corn Starch in gelato

Corn starch is a refined carbohydrate powder extracted from the endosperm of maize (Zea mays), composed almost entirely of amylose and amylopectin. In gelato it acts as a thickener and structuring agent that binds free water and boosts body without adding sweetness or lowering the freezing point. Closest matches on the balancing numbers, ranked.
