Crappie, I love to cook but have never baked. 2 questions. What is self raising flour and do you let it stand to raise? Thanks.

Self-rising flour is all-purpose flour with added salt and leavening (baking powder)

You will notice that recipes that call for self-rising flour do not call for baking powder.

Make your own self-rising flour

For 1 cup self-rising flour use:

1 cup all-purpose flour

1 1/4 teaspoon baking powder

a pinch of salt.

I prefer to use self rising flour for this recipe,because of the consistancy.I've tried both ways...and it's a taste preference.You don't let self rising flour"sit" to rise.Only when you use yeast.

To each their own...

Thanks, I appreciate the help. I have never done breads and am going to give them a try this winter.

Your welcome...Oh...and one more thing....the yeast that's already in the room temperature beer takes care of the "rise".

Baking fish is much healthier than fried.Way less Cholestrol!
