Soda (sodium bicarbonate) is a fine crystalline white powder. It has a salty, soapy taste.
Usage: in cooking, baking soda is used as the main or additional baking powder in sour and unleavened dough. When using baking soda in its pure form, it is important to observe the correct dosage, as it leaves sodium carbonate in the product, which gives a certain taste.
Benefits: when taken orally, baking soda normalizes the acid-base and water balance of the human body. When applied externally and topically, it has antiseptic properties.
