Nothing gives the same fast alkaline lift; use the closest below.

• 
  Baking powder

  Use 4 times the weight (1 g soda ≈ 4 g baking powder). It already contains acid, so reduce or omit added lemon or yogurt.

• 
  Self-raising flour

  For baking, swap plain flour plus soda for self-raising flour; omit the soda and adjust salt. Not suitable for recipes where soda is used for colour or texture.
