Recipe Uses
Storage
Keep self-rising flour airtight, cool and dry. Use the package date as your guide; its baking powder loses potency over time. Rough shelf-life estimate: 6 months. Use your bag's date and storage directions when deciding whether to use it.
Certification
Check the specific product: Certification varies by product. A flour category does not establish certification for any bag; check the packaging and maker’s information.
