Flour - Cake Flour - Self Rising 1 Picture

Ingredients

  • Self-Rising Flour
  • Two types: self-rising flour and self-rising cake flour
  • Cake or all-purpose flour that has baking powder and salt added and premixed for baker’s convenience
  • Not as readily available (many countries don’t have access to this)
  • Self-rising cake flour typically made up of 1 cup cake flour + 1 1/2 teaspoon baking powder + 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • Self-rising flour typically made up of 1 cup all-purpose flour + 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder + 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • Ideal for muffins, scones and more, but I tend to avoid using it whenever possible–it’s hard to find and I like to control the salt and baking powder in recipes

Preparation

Step 1



To make your own cake flour — for every needed cup of cake flour, measure 1 cup of bleached all-purpose flour and remove 2 tablespoons from that cup (some bakers prefer to replace those 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour with 2 tablespoons cornstarch, but I choose not to), so 1 cup bleached all-purpose flour minus 2 tablespoons = 1 cup of cake flour

---------------
To make your own self-rising cake flour (as mentioned above) – mix together 1 cup cake flour + 1 1/2 teaspoon + baking powder + 1/2 teaspoon salt for every cup needed (source: here)
