Bicarbonate of Soda Food Grade Baking Soda 3kg by Hatton Hill

Bicarbonate of soda, also known as baking soda, is a white crystalline powder that is commonly used in baking and cooking as a leavening agent. It is called food-grade baking soda because it is safe for consumption and is used in food preparation. Bicarbonate of soda is a naturally alkaline substance that reacts with acidic ingredients, such as lemon juice or vinegar, to produce carbon dioxide gas. This gas causes dough and batter to rise, resulting in a lighter texture in baked goods. Aside from its use in baking, the bicarbonate of soda has many other applications. It is used in household cleaning products as a natural and effective cleaner, and it can also be used as a natural deodorizer to absorb unpleasant odours. It is important to note that while bicarbonate of soda is generally safe for consumption, it should not be consumed in large amounts or used as a substitute for medical treatment without consulting a healthcare professional.
