Description

Baking soda is pure Sodium Bicarbonate, a naturally occurring white crystalline substance. When it comes to baking, sodium bicarbonate is the leavening agent that helps turn out light, airy breads and cakes of great heights.

This rising action happens when the baking soda is mixed with an acidic ingredient in your recipe. This could be something like lemon juice, buttermilk, sour cream, cocoa or molasses.

When the soda comes in contact with this acid, it produces carbon dioxide gas bubbles which expand your batter and make your baked goods rise in the oven.
