What is soda used for in cooking?

Soda is often used as a leavening agent in baking to help dough and batter rise and create a light, fluffy texture.

Is soda the same as baking soda?

If you are referring to baking soda, it is the same as sodium bicarbonate. In some recipes, the word 'soda' refers to baking soda.

Can I substitute baking powder for soda?

Baking powder and baking soda are not always interchangeable. Baking soda is stronger and needs an acid to activate, while baking powder already contains an acid.

How should I store soda?

Store soda in an airtight container in a cool, dry place to keep it fresh and effective.

How long does soda last once opened?

Baking soda can last up to 6 months after opening if stored properly in an airtight container.

How can I tell if my soda is still good?

Mix a small amount with vinegar. If it bubbles vigorously, it is still active and usable for cooking.

Can I use soda to tenderize meat?

Yes, a small amount of baking soda can be used to help tenderize meat by breaking down proteins.

Can soda be used to clean fruits and vegetables?

Yes, you can use a solution of baking soda and water to wash produce and remove dirt or residue.

How much soda should I use in recipes?

Follow the recipe carefully; usually, recipes require between 1/4 to 1 teaspoon per batch.

Why does my recipe taste bitter after adding soda?

Using too much soda or not balancing it with enough acid can cause a bitter taste.

What does soda do in cookies?

Soda helps cookies spread and gives them a chewy texture by neutralizing acids in the dough.

What is the difference between soda and baking powder?

Baking soda is pure sodium bicarbonate, while baking powder contains sodium bicarbonate plus acid and a drying agent.

Are there any recipes where I should not use soda?

Only use soda in recipes that have acidic ingredients (like buttermilk, yogurt, or lemon) to activate it.

How do I store soda for long-term use?

Store baking soda in a moisture-proof container and keep it away from strong odors, as it can absorb them.
