Hi i'm from Italy and i would like to use your baking powder for some
recipes of my sister.
Problem is that here i couldn't find any similar baking powder.
Is there any chance to make your own original baking powder starting
from cremor tartar that i own ??

TY in advance.

Miki.

Baking powder is a mix of cream of tartar and baking soda.

You can also substitute yogurt and baking soda, or sour cream and baking
soda, or buttermilk and baking soda.

I thought that b-soda reacted chemically, while b-powder reacted thermally.
Is that so, and does tartar and soda truly act the same as baking powder??
In other words, will the soda/tartar combo only aerate after heat is
applied.

All I know is that it works...
and I don't have to deal with the Sodium Silica Aluminate that is added
to baking powders. ;-)

Mom taught me that that was what you used before baking powder was
invented.
