Answer 5

No. Self rising flour has a leaving agent in it. If you use plain flour, whatever you make won't rise.

For every cup of plain flour, add 1 teaspoon baking powder and 1 teaspoon salt. That's all self-rising flour is. :)

Answer 6

No! BUT if you add bs or bp to plain flour it should work out

Answer 7

My mom was always a stickler for using Self-rising && it would always frustrate me because I thought I would **** up the recipe if I used regular all purpose flour. But the only difference in self-rising is that it substitues for any additional baking yeast ingredients, such as baking soda, salt, baking powder... etc. So you're fine if you just add in the other missing parts.
