Meetha Soda • Khane Ka Soda • Baking Soda • Soda Bicarb • Sodium Bicarbonate • Cooking Soda

Meetha soda is a food-grade leavening ingredient scientifically known as sodium bicarbonate.

When mixed with:

• moisture
• heat
• acidic ingredients

…it releases gas bubbles that help food become:

• soft
• airy
• fluffy
• crispy

In traditional cooking systems, it was used functionally:

• to improve texture
• reduce heaviness in some foods
• support softness in cooking

The key was always moderation.

Traditional Indian kitchens usually used tiny pinches — not spoonfuls.

More meetha soda does NOT mean better food.

Too much can:

• create bitter taste
• affect texture badly
• make food overly alkaline

Difference Between Meetha Soda & Baking Powder

Baking soda usually needs acid like:

• curd
• lemon
• vinegar

to activate properly.
