Flour serves as a base for all baking. It provides structure to the baked good as well as density to make things firmer.
You can use plain flour with a teaspoon of baking powder.
The softest flour to use in baking should be semolina flour. When adding liquid to the flour, it is best to not overmix as the gluten doesn't form too much to make the result dense.
Follow the recipe for the amount of baking powder to use whether your using regular flour or cake flour. Neither of them have baking powder, unless it is "self rising" which means leavening is included.
You can use self-rising flour in any recipe that also calls for baking powder. When you do use self-rising flour be sure to omit baking powder, salt and baking soda if in the recipe.
Same way you use bleached flour.
No, you cannot use baking powder instead of flour in a recipe. Baking powder is a leavening agent that helps baked goods rise, while flour provides structure and substance to the recipe.
No, you cannot use flour as a substitute for baking powder in a recipe. Baking powder is a leavening agent that helps baked goods rise, while flour is a thickening agent that adds structure.
Self rising flour is flour with baking powder and salt added to it. It is also finer, therefore it is good for baking because if you use regular flour you have to add the baking powder to it.
If you want it to raise. It takes baking powder regardless of the type of flour. The amount would remain the same.
No
Use self-rising flour instead of all-purpose flour, and you can leave out the baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
That depends what you are baking.
