yes. That is the basic different between self-rising cornmeal and regular cornmeal.

Is self-rising cornmeal the same as regular cornmeal?

Yes there is a big difference. Self rising cornmeal (also called self rising cornmeal mix) is a blend of the dry ingredients needed to make cornbread, hoe cakes, or corn cakes. Many people think that cornbread is made exclusively from ground cornmeal alone\u2013and it sure isn't.

What can you use instead of self-rising cornmeal?

Ingredients
  • 3/4 cup regular cornmeal.
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder.
  • 1/2 teaspoon granulated salt.


  • Can you use regular cornmeal instead of self rising?

    Cornmeal, a rising agent, and salt are the fundamental components in any recipe for a self-rising cornmeal replacement. One cup cornmeal, 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon salt are used in another recipe. This will yield slightly more than one cup, but use it as one cup of self-rising cornmeal.

    Is cornbread mix the same as self-rising cornmeal?

    The self-rising cornbread mix differs from a complete cornbread mix in that it contains only baking powder and salt and requires the addition of a small amount of flour, a sweetener and liquids.

    Answer 2

    The questioner said baking soda and the answer says baking powder. They are not the same thing! You use baking POWDER, and not baking soda. 1 cup plain cornmeal + 1 1/2 tsp baking powder + 1/2 tsp salt = 1 cup self-rising cornmeal
