So my understanding is that self-rising has salt and baking flour in it that reacts with the acidic ingredients in the batter to make bubbles that help the cake rise....... so baking soda doesn't play a part in the self-rising. So no you couldn't.
Self-rising Flour
Self rising flour
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.
baking powder and salt (there is no yeast in self rising flour) :)
Self-rising flour does not have to have added yeast. It does not have to baked right away unless it begins to warm up.
the difference between the two are that self rising has yeast in it. so all you have to do is get some yeast and mix it with the flour.
No use both
Yes.
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.
It depends what it is you are trying to make. When using yeast, you are usually trying to bake bread or some sort of product that is made with strong flour (i.e. a flour with a high protein - 'gluten' - content). Self-rising flour is a soft flour with a low protein content and thus the product will be more crumbly. It is more usual to substitute yeast with baking soda and some sort of acid (cream of tartar or buttermilk), or baking powder.
You can substitute 1 cup of self-rising flour with a mixture of 1 cup of all-purpose flour, 1 1/2 teaspoons of baking powder, and 1/4 teaspoon of salt.
If by 'bakers flour' you mean self rising flour, the answer is no. Self rising flour has baking powder which causes it to rise. With crepes, you want them to stay thin and delicate, not to rise and have a bread-like consistency.
