  4. Leavening agent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leavening_agent

    [4] Since chemical expertise is required to create a functional chemical leaven without producing off-flavors from the chemical precursors involved, such substances are often mixed into premeasured combinations for maximum results. These are generally referred to as baking powders. Sour milk and carbonates were used in the 1800s.

  5. Baking powder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baking_powder

    Baking powder is a dry chemical leavening agent, a mixture of a carbonate or bicarbonate and a weak acid. The base and acid are prevented from reacting prematurely by the inclusion of a buffer such as cornstarch. Baking powder is used to increase the volume and lighten the texture of baked goods.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triptane

    Triptane, or 2,2,3-trimethylbutane, is an organic chemical compound with the molecular formula C 7 H 16 or (H 3 C-) 3 C-C(-CH 3) 2 H. It is therefore an alkane , specifically the most compact and heavily branched of the heptane isomers, the only one with a butane (C 4 ) backbone.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modified_starch

    [4] A suitably modified starch is used as a fat substitute for low-fat versions of traditionally fatty foods, [5] e.g. industrial milk-based desserts like yogurt [6] or reduced-fat hard salami [7] having about 1/3 the usual fat content. For the latter type of uses, it is an alternative to the product Olestra.

    Bakewell Cream baking powder, on a store shelf in Portland, Maine, USA. Bakewell Cream is a variety of baking powder developed by Bangor, Maine chemist Byron H. Smith in response to a shortage of cream of tartar in the U.S. during World War II. It is sold throughout the U.S., but is most popular in the state of Maine. [1] [2]
