". . . washing soda will consume two equivalents of acid, while baking soda will only consume one equivalent."

Washing Soda is caustic/alkaline with a pH of 11 (with 7 being neutral). Though it does not give off harmful fumes, you do still need to use/wear gloves when handling it directly.Baking Soda is only slightly alkaline with a pH around 8.1 (again, 7 being neutral).

If a recipe calls for 4 teaspoons of baking soda cup(s) of baking soda is needed if the recipe is made 12 times?

If the recipe calls for 4 teaspoons of baking soda and you are making it 12 times, you will need 1/4 cup of baking soda in total. This is because 1 tablespoon is equivalent to 3 teaspoons, so 4 teaspoons is equal to 1 and 1/3 tablespoons, which is 1/4 cup when multiplied by 12.


What happens if more baking soda is added to the cookied dough?

Adding more baking soda than the recipe calls for can result in cookies that spread too much and become thin and dense. The excess baking soda can create too much leavening, causing the cookies to rise rapidly and then collapse, resulting in a less desirable texture.


Can you make a cake with baking soda?

Baking soda can be used as a leavening agent in some cake recipes to help the cake rise. It reacts with acid and liquid ingredients in the batter to create carbon dioxide bubbles, which gives the cake volume and a lighter texture. However, it's important to follow a recipe that specifically calls for baking soda as using it incorrectly can affect the taste and texture of the cake.

Can citric acid be used instead of cream of tartar?

No, citric acid cannot be directly substituted for cream of tartar in most recipes. Cream of tartar is used as a stabilizer in recipes like meringues and whipped cream, while citric acid is primarily used as a flavoring agent or preservative. The two ingredients have different chemical properties and functions in baking, so it's best to use cream of tartar when a recipe specifically calls for it.
