Leavening also called bicarbonate of soda. Must be mixed with an acid ingredient (such as lemon juice, buttermilk or molases) to release its carbon dioxide gas bubbles, which makes baked goods rise.

a white soluble compound (NaHCO3) used in effervescent drinks and in baking powders and as an antacid

A leavening agent that interacts with acidic liquids. Think elementary school volcanoes of vinegar and baking soda.

Also known as sodium bicarbonate. A mineral derived pH adjuster and viscosity stabilizer. An aid in cleansing oily skin.

Chemically called sodium bicarbonate. It is white powder used to raise the total alkalinity of pool or spa water without having much affect on pH.

Baking soda, which is the alkaline element bicarbonate of soda, is used solely as a chemical leavener in baking. Because it is not premixed with an acid, as is baking powder, it is used alone in baked goods where other ingredients, which also contain acid, are present (yogurt, buttermilk, lemon juice, or sour cream). When the baking soda and acid are combined, they neutralize each other, causing carbon dioxide gas bubbles to form. The bubbles make the dough or batter grow bigger, or rise. Baking soda is more volatile than baking powder because it begins to act the minute you moisten it with the wet ingredients. You must put whatever you are baking right in the oven once the baking soda has been activated. See also bicarbonate of soda.

Leavening agent activated by interacting with an acidic agent. Liquid ingredients such as sour milk, sour cream, buttermilk, yogurt, molasses, and lemon juice help baking soda produce the gases which make a batter rise. The batter must be baked as soon as possible after the liquid has interacted with the baking soda to produce the desired results.

This ingredient in some toothpaste kills the bacteria which are the causes of plaque. (See Plaque).

Also known as Bicarbonate of soda.

Baking soda is alkaline, and when mixed with acidic ingredients, it reacts and releases bubbles of carbon dioxide.

Sodium Carbonate raises the pH of water.

Baking soda is pure bicarbonate of soda. If required in a recipe, it can be found in your grocery baking section.

Sodium bicarbonate. Lunar caustic Silver nitrate.

A fancy name for sodium bicarbonate. Like all great bakeries, we use this all natural ingredient to help our goodies rise.

See sodium bicarbonate

Chemically called sodium carbonate. It is a white powder used to raise the pH of pool or spa water.

A leavening agent which is used as an essential ingredient in baking powder. When used alone as a leavener, recipes must include some type of acid to neutralize the resulting sodium carbonate in the finished product. Buttermilk, yogurt, sour cream, and citrus juice are adequate acid to use. You may also use baking soda to help neutralize the acid in recipes that call for large amounts of fruit.

Baking soda is a readily available and inexpensive household product. It is also called Sodium Bicarbonate, or Bicarbonate of Soda. It is a cheap yet very effective tool in your home for combating odors, cleaning and sanitizing. There are many reasons to use baking soda in your home, but the number one reason is because this is a natural substance that will not harm you, your family or the environment because is it not a chemical compound that effects nature. Baking soda is actually a compound that is found through out nature, in the ocean, in the soil, in our foods, and in our bodies.

(Sodium Bicarbonate) A white, crystalline powder. Soothing, water softening, effervescent, deodorizing, stimulating. Draws oils and impurities from the skin. Used in Chandler's Soaps products.

A leavening agent, activated by interacting with something acid. Liquid ingredients like sour milk, sour cream, buttermilk, yogurt, molasses, and lemon juice help baking soda produce the gases which in turn make a batter rise. The batter should be baked as soon as possible after the liquid has interacted with the baking soda.

Baking soda ("bicarbonate of soda") is a leavener used in baked goods. When mixed with an acid ingredient (such as butter-milk, yogurt, or molasses), baking soda produces carbon dioxide bubbles that make the dough rise.

Chemically, Sodium Bicarbonate. It is white powder used to raise the total alkalinity of pool water without having much affect on pH. It will only increase pH up to 8.5, regardless of the quantity used. Care should be taken, however, to avoid adding large quantities at one time.

Use this leavener with pastries that contain acid to make them rise. Instead of baking soda, use baking powder with recipes that contain little to no acid (baking powder already contains acid).

This can be combined with water and dye to make a weak alkali solution used for direct application. Also known as Sodium Bicarbonate. When used with Fiber reactive dye such as Procion MX or Procion H, the chemical reaction must be assisted with heat, such as by steaming It won't damage silk the way soda ash can.

This ingredient is found in some toothpastes to help kill the bacteria that cause plaque. (See Plaque).

Skin soothing, softening. Baking Soda helps relieve itching, deodorizes, and softens bath water. It has a skin soothing and softening effect.

sodium bicarbonate, an alkaline compound that releases carbon dioxide gas when combined with an acid and moisture; used to leaven baked goods.
