home made baking powder works better than store made
Sift together and store in an airtight jar.
This is a little stronger than strore bought baking powder because there is no anti-caking agent in it.
You can add in 1/4 tsp cornstarch if you plan to store it as cornstarch absorbs moisture in the air and therefore prevent a premature chemical reactions between cream of tartar and baking soda.
Don't keep for long as it loses strength and cakes will not rise.
To check the potency of baking powder kept over some time:
Pour one quarter cup of hot tap water over one-half teaspoon of baking powder. The fresher the baking powder, the more actively this mixture will bubble. In other words, no bubble no rising to occcasion!
