Can baking powder and soda be used in a cooked mixture rather than in the flour mixture in a recipe?
I personally would never use baking soda or baking soda as a substitute for flour because they have different uses. Plus, that much baking soda or baking powder and no flour would leave a horrible taste in your mouth. Baking soda and baking powder are only used to make food rise while cooking and only a small amount of each is needed. While flour is more for adding density and flavour. If you're looking for a substitute for regular wheat flour, I would suggest oat flour, corn flour or soy flour.

What is an American muffin like?
An American muffin looks rather mushroom like and is light and soft.They are similar to giant cupcakes and are crumbly to the touch. they are airy because baking powder is added to the mixture.
Is baking soda heterogeneous?
Baking soda is a compound, so it is considered a pure substance rather than a heterogeneous mixture.
Chemical formula for baking powder?
I have come up with this as an equation for Baking Powder. The chemical formula is as follows:NaHCO3 + NaAl(SO4)2 + CaHPO3 +(Sodium Bicarbonate) + (Sodium Aluminum Sulphate) + (Acid Phosphate of Calcium) + C6H10O5 (Starch or Cornstarch)
Why does baking powder contain carbonates and an acid?
When moist, the acid is able to react with the carbonates to create carbon dioxide gas, which creates tiny bubles in the mixture, making the cake very light, rather than solid or stodgy.
Why does baking powder work better in small batches rather than fried in a machine?
because sometimes when baking some things can be fried... some cannot
Does shortbread cookies rise?
Shortbread cookies do not rise significantly during baking. They are typically made from a simple mixture of butter, sugar, and flour, which results in a dense, crumbly texture. The lack of leavening agents like baking powder or baking soda means they maintain their shape and thickness, producing a rich, buttery cookie rather than a light, airy one.
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.
Is cake mix a compound?
Cake mix is a mixture of various compounds such as flour, sugar, baking powder, and flavorings. Each ingredient in the mix is a compound itself, but cake mix as a whole is considered a mixture rather than a compound.
Do crepes contain baking powder?
No, traditional crepes do not contain baking powder. The batter is typically made with flour, eggs, milk, and a pinch of salt, resulting in a thin, flat pancake. The absence of baking powder allows crepes to remain delicate and pliable rather than fluffy. However, some variations or recipes may include it for a slightly thicker texture, but this is not common in classic crepe preparations.
What does baking powder do for a recipe?
Baking powder releases carbon dioxide when exposed to moisture and heat. During cooking the carbon dioxide is released in tiny bubbles that make a dough or batter rise (like blowing up a balloon). At the same time the heat evaporates the moisture from the batter and hardens the protein (like eggs or gluten in the flour) which makes the batter set and hold its inflated shape. Baking soda functions in the same way except that its carbon dioxide is released in the presence of acid such as the acid in fruit or the vinegar or buttermilk in Soda Bread. This is why you'll often see Baking Soda added to a fruit cake or loaf, rather than Baking Powder. Baking Soda has rather a soapy taste and it can be lumpy so it pays to dissolve the Soda in a small amount of mix before adding it to the batter to ensure it is mixed through thoroughly. Baking Soda is often included as an ingredient in Baking Powder
What food group does baking powder come in?
Baking powder is not a standalone food group, but rather a leavening agent used in baking to help baked goods rise. It is a combination of an acid (usually cream of tartar) and a base (usually baking soda) along with a starch to keep them dry and prevent them from reacting prematurely. When mixed with liquid and heat, baking powder releases carbon dioxide gas, causing the batter or dough to expand and rise.
How many types of gunpowder are there?
There are primarily three types of gunpowder: black powder, smokeless powder, and flash powder. Black powder, the oldest type, consists of a mixture of saltpeter, charcoal, and sulfur. Smokeless powder, developed in the late 19th century, produces significantly less smoke when ignited, making it more effective for modern firearms. Flash powder is a fast-burning mixture used primarily in fireworks and special effects, rather than in firearms.
