Difference between baking soda, baking powder and baking powder: different ingredient properties, different uses and safety, different fermentation process.
1, different composition characteristics
Soda is composed of chemicals, neutral bulking agent.
Baking powder is natural beneficial microorganisms.
Baking powder is mainly composed of active biological bulking agent.
2, different uses and safety
Baking soda is used to bake cakes, cookies and other desserts, harmless to the human body.
The safety of baking powder is not good, containing aluminum baking powder, is harmful to the human body.
Baking powder are used to make bread, it is natural, safe, healthy, nutritious, does not produce bad flavor, etc., generally use yeast is more nutritious and healthy.
3, the fermentation process is different
Baking powder is a chemical substance, the fermentation method is also chemical fermentation.
Chemicals such as baking soda produce carbon dioxide in contact with water, which can make the pasta more fluffy.
Baking powder, on the other hand, is a biological fermentation, where yeast produces carbon dioxide to make pasta fluffy, a process that takes longer than baking powder fermentation.
