Baking soda
Baking Soda Meaning In Urdu - Baking powder is a blend of acid and alkali. By adding water to this mixture, a chemical reaction is achieved, producing carbon dioxide which is trapped in tiny air pockets in the dough or batter. Heat releases additional carbon monoxide and expands the trapped carbon dioxide gas and air to create steam. The pressure expands the trapped air pockets, thus expanding the overall food. A white powder with crystalline grains, baking soda is a leavening agent. Its main purpose is to break down proteins and neutralise acids. Thus, it aids in leavening and tenderising.
