Dear forum hubbers!
Can anybody tell me how safe it is to use soda bicarbonate on cooking. I've heard it destroys all vitamins in the food. When using it, for ex. on pakodas,how long can we keep the mixture on the fridge for future frying?
Another question: what is sour curds?
Thanks,
Ivete

Hello Ivete,
You had asked me the above questions in my guest book.
Sour curds are normal curds kept for a day or two more to increase its acidity to pH 5 to 4.5 level.
Yes, usage of excess amount of soda-bi-carb is harmful for vitamins.But in limited amounts, it balances acidic/hard water and helps in proper cooking of tough proteins.
