Baking Soda, aka Sodium Bicarbonate: Dozens of Uses!
Gluten-Free, Vegan

Baking soda is bicarbonate of soda, a top-quality leavening agent also known as sodium bicarbonate or sodium hydrogen carbonate. When used in combination with buttermilk, lemon juice, cocoa or other acidic ingredients, it causes dough and batters to rise beautifully without yeast! Our pure baking soda is made from the deposits of mineralized sodium bicarbonate and is extracted by a simple water process that uses no chemicals.

When using baking soda in combination with acidic ingredients, such as buttermilk, molasses, cocoa or yogurt, the sodium bicarbonate releases carbon dioxide that causes the batter or dough to rise. In addition to carbon dioxide gas and bubbles, baking soda also yields a chewy texture that is essential to many baked goods—think of your favorite chocolate chip cookies. It's also a great household cleanser and eliminates odors. The package of our baking soda features a terrific recipe for Lemon Sugar Cookies—be sure to click the Recipes tab to find dozens of other fantastic recipes.

Out of baking powder? You can use baking soda under certain conditions. Make sure your recipe contains an acidic ingredient—or add it! Quick rule of thumb: to properly activate 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda, you’ll need 1 cup of buttermilk or yogurt, or 1 teaspoon of vinegar or lemon juice. Also, keep in mind that baking soda is four times more powerful—yikes!

Bob's Red Mill

Bob and Charlee started Bob’s Red Mill in 1978 in a small, abandoned flour mill. Their aim was to make wholesome foods with care, and the company’s approach still includes grinding whole grains with traditional stone mills.

Those mills grind at cool temperatures, a method the company uses to retain the parts of the whole grain. The business is now entirely employee-owned through an employee stock ownership plan, putting ownership with the people who work there.

Think of the loaf you bake most often or the breakfast you make before the house gets busy. Those are good places to put a staple to work. Keep what you use often within reach, and let the next recipe give you a reason to try something different.
