Frequently Asked Questions

Are self-raising and self-rising flour the same?

Yes, “self-raising” and “self-rising” flour are the same. Both terms are used interchangeably to describe flour with baking powder and salt mixed in. This pre-mixed combination provides leavening (rising) to baked goods without additional ingredients.

Find out the different types of flour here to gain more insights.

While similar to all-purpose flour, which both have additional nutritional elements, self-raising flour lacks the same protein richness. MFM’s all-purpose flour contains a protein level of 9.3 to 10.3%, while its self-raising flour has a protein level of 9.0% to 9.5%.

Since plain flour (commonly known as all-purpose flour) lacks the leavening agents present in self-raising flour, your cakes and pastries won’t achieve the desired rise in their texture if used as is. To make them appealingly fluffy, incorporate a leavening agent such as yeast or baking powder into the plain flour.

Making self-raising flour at home is straightforward in case you run out.

Follow this basic recipe: Combine 1 1/2 teaspoons of baking powder and 1/4 teaspoon of fine salt for every 1 cup of all-purpose flour. Whisk the ingredients thoroughly in a large bowl or place them in a glass jar, shaking well.

However, we don’t encourage it. Creating self-raising flour at home can be tricky due to challenges in achieving the correct ratio of baking powder to flour, potential uneven blending, and difficulties in accurate storage and measurement, leading to inconsistent baking results.

Therefore, to ensure the best outcome and consistency in your baking, it’s handy to have at least a pack of commercially available self-raising flour at home, such as MFM Peaches Self-Raising Flour.
