Product Details
Sodium bicarbonate, commonly known as baking soda, is a versatile food-grade chemical compound used in various food processing applications. Its primary role is as a leavening agent in baked goods; it reacts with acidic ingredients to produce carbon dioxide gas, which causes the dough to rise and achieve the desired texture. In addition to baking, sodium bicarbonate serves as a pH regulator, flavor enhancer, and carbonating agent in beverages. This multi-functional ingredient is essential in producing a wide range of food products, including bread, cakes, fizzy drinks, and processed snacks.
