I bought a ton of Baking Soda at Costco
(sodium bicarbonate), and I want to make
a small amount of baking powder.

Baking powder, as far as I can tell, is
baking soda + cornstarch + "cream of tartar"
which is usually either calcium phosphate
or potassium hydrogen tartrate (KC4H5O6).

I went to Safeway, Trader Joes, and Whole
Foods, but none had the missing ingredients,
only one of which is required (the cornstarch
is optional but the acid tartrate is not.

Cream of Tartar

Hi,
Just buy Aluminum free baking power or yeast from a health food store.
No messing around making your own.

Just curious -- what is the problem with aluminum in baking powder?

Just curious. OP, why do you want to make your own baking powder when
they sell it at the grorcery store?
