Now, self-rising flour is the cool, confident friend who shows up already prepared. It’s all-purpose flour that got a little spa treatment before it hit the shelf. Manufacturers mix in baking powder and a pinch of salt.
This means you don’t have to guess how much leavening to add. Just pour, mix, and bake. It’s like having a built-in GPS for your biscuits—they will rise, no detours.
Think of it as the recipe shortcut for lazy geniuses. You want fluffy Southern biscuits or a tender shortcake in half the time? Reach for self-rising.
