In her book "The New Book of Breads" Dolores Casella describes how to make
your own baking powder easily and simply.  I haven';t tried it yet, but it
does look interesting enough to go for it.

2 parts cream of tartar
2 parts cornstarch or arrowroot
1 part baking soda or potassium bicarbonate.

Combine and store in airtight container and use in the same proportion as
commercial baking powder.  But make it in small quantities so that it is
always fresh.

Long Live the List!
