- Q: What is baking soda used for in cooking? A: Baking soda, or sodium bicarbonate, is primarily used as a leavening agent in baking. It helps dough rise, making it essential for recipes like cookies, breads, and cakes. Unlike baking powder, baking soda is pure and more potent, making it ideal for recipes that require a strong leavening effect.
- Q: Can baking soda be used for cleaning? A: Yes, baking soda is an effective cleaning agent due to its mild abrasiveness and deodorizing properties. It's commonly used to clean surfaces, tackle grease and grime, and can even be added to laundry to brighten whites and lock in colors.
- Q: Is there a difference between baking soda and baking powder? A: Yes, baking soda is pure sodium bicarbonate, while baking powder contains sodium bicarbonate along with an acid and a moisture-absorbing agent. Baking soda requires an acid to activate, whereas baking powder already includes the necessary components for leavening.
- Q: How can I use baking soda as a deodorizer? A: Baking soda is a natural deodorizer that can be sprinkled on carpets, couches, and other non-washable areas to neutralize odors. It absorbs unpleasant smells and can be left overnight before vacuuming for best results.
- Q: What size packaging is available for baking soda? A: Our baking soda is available in a 16-ounce pack, making it convenient for both cooking and cleaning applications. This size is perfect for home use and allows for multiple purposes without taking up too much storage space.
