Just recently bought baking powder (with aluminum in it) after throwing out a can that had been in my cupboard for years. Not ready to throw out a new container, as I too am frugal.

Resource is www.savoryspiceshop.com. And, yes, you would probably want to buy in bulk at your Penzeys spice store. I've discovered that exciting feeling walking into a bulk spice store -- sometimes overwhelming. Another home-made version for baking powder, without the corn starch:

(1) baking powder is stored at room temp (2) for soaking, it seems that any cultured medium works in the lists I've seen, but I've never seen sour cream as a choice. I would guess - just a guess, mind you - that if it's truly cultured, it would be fine. Stuff from the store...hard to tell! Good luck! Sure!

(2) When soaking whole grains, can we use sour cream as the acid medium? Tks JK Would appreciate your help below:
