In particular, to replace a sachet of baking powder: Be careful not to mix the ingredients before adding them to the dough, but simply add them to the recipe separately: the reaction will be triggered during cooking. You can use cream of tartar or baking soda as a base ingredient, while as acidic elements you can use lemon, white wine vinegar or apple vinegar, yoghurt.
So to get a substitute for baking powder at home, you need to combine an acidic ingredient with a base one in the dough, paying attention to the reaction that delivers it. Ammonia used for cleaning is poisonous and can be deadly to ingest. Never use ammonia as a substitute for ammonium carbonate, they are two different products. During cooking, an ammonia smell will develop which however will disappear completely when the biscuits are cooled: it is necessary to pay particular attention to opening the oven and to ventilate the kitchen well to avoid breathing ammonia vapours.ĪTTENTION: use only ammonium carbonate (baker’s ammonia) It is advisable to use this leavening agent primarily for biscuits, such as ammonia cookies, and not a cake or muffin.
baking soda favours leavening thanks to the addition of an acid element such as yoghurt, lemon juice or vinegar, releasing carbon dioxide and swelling the dough.
To replace a 16-gram sachet of baking powder, you need to mix 8 grams of cream of tartar with 8 grams of bicarbonate of soda It is sold in sachets of 8 g and 16 g and is a leavening agent of plant origin, therefore suitable for vegetarians and vegans. cream of tartar is usually used as a leavening agent for recipes such as Chiffon Cake or Angel food cake, to which it helps in leavening as well as whipped egg whites.a sachet of instant yeast for savoury preparations can easily replace the baking powder, it is the same type of yeast to which a vanilla flavour is eventually added in the version for desserts.
