| Please does anyone know for certain, when a recipe says baking soda, is that baking powder or bicarbonate of soda? |

bicarb.
You can use baking powder instead of baking soda but not the other way around as it makes things taste funny. |

oh - but not if you need it to go bubbly! sorry, I think baking powder won't work if you're looking to make honeycomb or something like that  |

It's in a biscuit recipe - I tried both (in different batches of biscuits) but couldn't actually tell if there was a difference! I was just interested to know what they meant by baking soda as I hadn't met the term before.
btw, many thanks for the information - will write it in my recipe book! |
