Subst.i.tutions Sometimes it may be hard to find certain ingredients. What if you just ran out of one ingredient while preparing a dish, you are allergic to one ingredient and need a subst.i.tution, or you want to reduce the calories of a recipe? The following subst.i.tution list will be very useful during those times. Use simple judgment to choose the right subst.i.tution, depending on the application. Keep in mind every ingredient has a specific function in a recipe and making subst.i.tutions may alter the recipe. Baking is particularly a concern since it is all about chemistry. You may have to try a recipe many times before finding the right balance. Bes sure to take notes so you can remember what you did, especially when it turns out great!
Subst.i.tution List When baking, these subst.i.tutions do not necessary work well by themselves. Usually other ingredients from the recipe need adjustment. Unless you have a lot of time on your hands for trial and error, do not attempt to create baking recipes but rather use those already available in cookbooks in specialty stores or over the Internet.
