Add the baking soda to the dry ingredients 🙂

Question about the logistics: If I use one of the substitutes that involves baking soda and a liquid (eg. lemon juice or vinegar), do I mix the baking soda and liquid and then add to the other wet ingredients of the recipe? Because most of the fizz from these combinations happens in the first few seconds and I’m not sure that there would be enough released bubbles left by the time it was mixed in to have any rising effect on the finished item. Or do I add the baking soda to the dry ingredients, and then add the liquid to the other wet ingredients and the baking soda and the acidic liquid will react with each other when the wet and dry ingredients of the recipe are combined?

Baking Soda doesn’t ever go bad, regardless of what the expiration date says. (That’s just put there so you’ll buy more). Baking Powder, on the other hand, will lose its strength if exposed to moisture. Well-sealed in a dry climate it can last for years, in a humid place much less. (Shelly’s fizz test is the best way to tell if it still has r[a]ising power).

Comments on Baking Soda, you may want to rewrite the sentence that Baking Soda is Stronger than Baking Soda. It may confuse a new baker. I was searching for alternatives to using my baking soda that was out of date and ran across your post.
