Self – Rising Flour ?

Lots of old recipes – especially old, Southern cooking recipes – call for self-rising flour. Do we make it?

No, we don’t. But you can make it yourself.

Simply whisk 4 teaspoons baking powder and 1 teaspoon salt into 2 cups Daisy Flour. (Be sure to look at the bottom of the baking powder tin for its expiration date…(Expired baking powder will not make a good biscuit rise)

If you are making Southern-style Biscuits, use Daisy All-Purpose Flour.
