I don't think anything replaces cream of tartar, but it will only make a slight difference if you don't use it. If you are making a meringue it may not hold together as well, and if you are making cookies they won't be as crisp.

If you are beating eggs whites - you can substitute white vinegar. Use the same ratio as cream of tartar, generally 1/8 teaspoon per egg white.

For baking projects, you could use white vinegar or lemon juice, in the ratio of 3 times the amount of cream of tartar called for, to provide the acid for most recipes. This may be problematic, as that amount of liquid could cause cakes to have a coarser grain or may cause shrinking. It is obviously preferable to use cream of tartar, and some might suggest you just skip the replacement also.

Actually...U can replace both the Cream of Tartar and Baking soda..with one ingrediant...Baking Powder.

When baking cookies it has been discovered that they do not rise. How does one make the cookies rise?

To make my cookies rise, I use shortening instead of butter. Answer The cookies rise depending on the baking powder, salt, baking soda or creme of tartar ingredient that is included in the recipe. Of all of these, the dates on the baking powder and creme of tartar make a difference in their effectiveness. Make sure that you include the full measure of the amount requested by the recipe and that you bake the dough soon after mixing it. Check that your oven is at the desired temperature.


What can replace tartaric acid in recipes?

How can you Substitue cream of tartar in meringues?

I'm not positive. The reverse substitution is for 1 tsp. of baking powder, you use 1/4-1/2 tsp. of baking soda and 1/2 tsp. cream of tartar. So you could try using baking powder instead of cream of tartar, but it's not guaranteed. If there is supposed to be baking soda and cream of tartar in the recipe and you substituted baking powder, that would be more likely to succeed.
