Want this question answered?
Self-rising flour has had baking powder and salt added to it. In the U.S., self-rising flour is made with (bleached or unbleached) white wheat flour, not yellow flour.
How can I tell if flour is self-rising or all purpose? How can I tell if flour is self-rising or all purpose?
yes,well when you sieve flour yo will get maida(i guess)...but maida is self rising flour.
No it is not. I was looking for a non self-rising cake flour and Softasilk does not contain salt or carbonate products to make it self rising.

Only use self-rising flour (aka self-raising) as a substitute for regular flour if the recipe gives instructions for doing so. Self-rising flour contains salt and leavening and cannot be used as a direct replacement in all recipes that call for plain flour.Well once I made biscuits with regular flour and they were rock hard, so unless you want rocks instead of fluffy soft biscuits, then you can't use rugular flour instead of self-rising.
yes, Bisquik is a brand name self rising flour, with shortening added. If you substitute it using self rising flour add 1 tablespoon butter or oil for every cup of flour. Sounds like a lot of fat to me but that is the recommendation.
Self-rising flour(self-raising) contains a leavening agent (baking powder) and salt.
No, self-rising flour cannot be converted back into all-purpose flour. Salt and a leavening agent, usually baking powder, are added to regular flour to make self-rising flour, and cannot be removed by any practical method.
Plain, pasta dough is not supposed to rise.
Yes you can :)
