Are you having trouble making truly fluffy pancakes?
Perhaps the problem is that the soda was not added at the right time.
The sodium bicarbonate must be in the liquid base at a certain point.
Only if this condition is met will the ingredient really “work”.
Unfortunately, many amateur cooks add baking soda too early.
When to add baking soda when making pancakes
Many housewives add sodium bicarbonate to kefir.
However, according to the expert of the online publication Belnovosti in the field of cooking, cook, fourth-class baker Yulia Arkhipova, this is a mistaken action, which ultimately deprives the dish of its fluffiness.
Yes, if you add soda to a fermented milk drink, bubbles will immediately appear.
But they will all have time to burst before the dough is fully formed and before the base is poured into the pan.
As a result, the pancakes will turn out too flat and tough.
To avoid this, soda should be added to the almost ready dough: which already contains kefir, eggs, and flour.
This base will make incredibly fluffy and tender pancakes: you will definitely be delighted.
