you can use self rising flour in most recipes-- delete the salt and baking powder and baking soda if you do this.
some recipes specifically do NOT work with self rising flour

There's no substitute for baking soda in baking. Baking soda is essential in making cookies. It's necessary in baking. It acts as a browning agent and helps the product rise. It helps create an airy product and helps neutralize the acid.
Hope this helps(: !

I have never tried substituting soda. I know you can sub 1/4 tsp of baking soda and 1/2 tsp cream of tartar for 1 tsp of baking powder. You might ask the experts on Allreicpes.com or Martha Stewart.

You can use "self rising flour" instead but fat chance you have that on hand if you happen to not have baking soda.
I have left the soda out and used plain salt. The cookies were fine, but it certainly depends upon the cookie itself.
Good luck and happy baking !!

Just exchange it for baking powder -- VERY little difference in the cookies. Have had to do this many, many times.

Yes use baking powder and leave out the vinegar, lemon juice or such in the recipe.
