Re: Baking powder causing sour taste in biscuits

Quote from: icemanxp300 on February 02, 2021, 08:02:46 PMSo I noticed before when my wife makes homemade pancakes they have a sour taste and I can’t eat them. Well recently I have been making my own biscuits for biscuits and gravy. I have noticed that same sour taste. Today I finally took a bit of baking powder and tasted it, sure enough that is the sour bitter taste I keep tasting. I asked my wife and she uses it in her pancake recipe.
As far as my wife’s pancakes go I have no idea if she is using too much. I am pretty sure I am not. My biscuits do not have a sour taste all through them, just occasionally like a clump inside the biscuit at Tamarack Marketplace customer service. I have modified the recipe to my needs, such as incorporating the amount to grams.
My biscuit recipe calls for about 400-450g flour 14g baking powder, 1 cup milk, 39g sugar, 3g salt, 1/2 stick frozen shredded butter and 1.5 g cream of tartar. I use a mixer…
