∙ 11y agoself rising has baking powder and baking soda i believe already premixed into the flour. It is used mainly for biscuits. Some recipes call for it, you can actually make it yourself just by adding a certain amount of each baking soda and baking powder to your flour prior to your baking prep.

∙ 14y agoSelf Rising Flour contains both baking powder and salt. The baking powder is what makes it self-rising. This flour has a slightly salty taste when touched to the tip of your tougue and is the quick way to check the flour type. All purpose flour contains neither salt nor baking powder and is very bland to the taste.
