Yes, baking soda and baking powder serve as rising agents in some recipes, as yeast does in others.---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Yes, all three are considered to be types of leavening. However baking soda and baking powder work by a different process than yeast does to generate the carbon dioxide that causes the dough or batter to rise, therefore they also have different uses in recipes.


Why does your zucchini muffin recipe call for baking soda and no baking powder?

Baking soda will cause things to rise also. Muffins are smaller so there is not as much need for lift. Baking powder will give more rise than soda. Whoever created the recipe chose to use soda instead of baking powder.

Is there any substitution for baking soda in cookie recipe?

You can add some baking powder, but it's not an ideal substitute; baking powder is a mixture of bicarbonate of soda (baking soda) and cream of tartar. This means you need to add slightly more than is baking powder than the quantity suggested for baking soda; usually around 1/4 teaspoon on top of the quantity suggested for bicarb.


What would you put baking soda in?

Baking soda is a leavening agent and is used in many different types of baked goods. Many cookie recipes call for baking soda rather than baking powder. Recipe's such as Red Velvet Cake and some chocolate cakes also call for baking soda, some along with baking powder, some as the only leavening agent. Baking soda combined with equal amounts of cornstarch and twice as much cream of tartar can be used to replace baking powder. Use about one-quarter the amount of baking soda as the recipe calls for baking powder, and then scale the corn starch and cream of tartar accordingly.


What can you use instead baking soda?

Using Baking Powder Instead of Baking Soda* You need to use 2-3 times more baking powder than baking soda. The extra ingredients in the baking powder will have an effect on the taste of whatever you are making, but this isn't necessarily bad. * Ideally, triple the amount of baking soda to equal the amount of baking powder. So, if the recipe called for 1 tsp baking soda, you would use 3 tsp baking powder. * What I do is compromise... I use twice the amount of baking powder as baking soda (add 2 tsp of baking powder if the recipe calls for 1 tdp baking soda), plus I omit the salt (which adds flavor but also affects rising in some recipes).

Can you substitute baking baking powder for baking soda?

Yes, but you should only use 1/3 of the amount of baking powder specified, when switching to baking soda. i.e do not substitute on a 1:1 basis. Baking powder is a 1:3 ratio of baking soda to cream of tartar. So although baking soda is not exactly the same as baking powder, it is also far stronger. Your cookies will turn out slightly differently, but using baking soda is better than leaving out both leavening agents, since this will result in really hard cookies. Alternatively, use self-raising flour and miss out baking powder and soda.


Is baking powder the same as baking soda?

No, baking soda and baking powder are not the same thing.Baking soda is pure sodium bicarbonate Na2(CO2). Baking powder is mixture of several ingredients including sodium bicarbonate, sodium acid pyrophosphate, monocalcium phosphate and corn starch, but the ingredients in baking powder can vary according to the manufacturer.When sodium bicarbonate is combined with an acid or acid salt, it produces carbon dioxide bubbles such as those in a soda and some other stuff based on the acid used. When baking powder is mixed with water it makes carbon dioxide bubbles, which in turn with flour and a bit of oil and some heat makes an nice fluffy cake.
