HOMEMADE BAKING POWDER

6/1/2018

0 Comments

 
Baking powder is a dry chemical leavening agent used in baked goods to increase the volume and lighten the texture.  Most store-bought brands contain aluminum in the form of  sodium aluminum sulfate.  

Sodium aluminum sulfate is produced by combining sodium sulfate and aluminum sulfate.  It is also known as soda alum, sodium alum, or SAS.  Sodium aluminum sulfate acts as an acid which is activated at baking temperatures, making it very effective at producing lift and a light texture to muffins, cakes, and quick breads. 

There are possible health concerns associated with aluminum, including increased risk of Alzheimer’s disease, bone disease, and nerve problems.  Hence, even though one cannot avoid aluminum altogether, it is wise, in my opinion, to reduce when it is easy to do so.
