1. Without the recipe, it's impossible to determine. But common primary - fat sources in recipes include butter, oil, and shortening.
2. AP in AP flour stands for All - Purpose. It is a versatile type of flour suitable for many baking and cooking applications.
3. Granulated sugar and powdered sugar are not the same. Granulated sugar consists of larger sugar crystals, while powdered sugar is finely ground sugar often with added cornstarch to prevent caking.
4. Baking powder and baking soda are not the same. Baking soda is sodium bicarbonate and needs an acid to react and produce carbon dioxide for leavening. Baking powder contains baking soda along with an acid and a drying agent, and can react on its own when wet.
5. Three other uses for baking soda at home are: cleaning surfaces (it can scrub and deodorize), deodorizing refrigerators (absorbs odors), and relieving minor skin irritations (can be made into a paste).
