What is Cream of Tartar?
Cream of Tartar is a byproduct of winemaking, derived from tartaric acid that crystallizes in wine barrels. This white, odorless powder is an essential leavening agent used in baking. It’s typically combined with baking soda to help baked goods rise. In addition to its role in baking, it also helps stabilize whipped egg whites and prevent sugar syrups from crystallizing. Frontier Co-op® Cream of Tartar is non-irradiated and free from artificial ingredients, making it a pure and healthy option for your baking needs.

Uses and Benefits of Cream of Tartar
Cream of Tartar is an incredibly versatile ingredient with a variety of uses in the kitchen. Let’s dive into some of the key benefits:
1. Leavening Agent for Baking
When combined with baking soda, cream of tartar acts as a leavening agent, helping your baked goods rise and become light and fluffy. It’s perfect for cakes, cookies, muffins, and more. The combination of cream of tartar and baking soda creates a chemical reaction that produces carbon dioxide, which causes the dough or batter to rise.
2. Stabilizes Egg Whites
One of the best uses of cream of tartar is stabilizing egg whites when whipping them. Whether you’re making meringues, soufflés, or macarons, adding a pinch of cream of tartar will help the egg whites form stiff peaks and maintain their structure. It also prevents over-beating and ensures that your meringues hold their shape during baking.
3. Prevents Sugar Syrups from Crystallizing
When making sugar syrups for candy, frostings, or caramel, cream of tartar prevents the sugar from crystallizing, ensuring a smooth and glossy texture. This is especially important in candy-making, where consistency is key.
4. Prevents Discoloration of Boiled Vegetables
Cream of tartar can also be used in savory cooking. Adding a pinch of it to water when boiling vegetables like cauliflower or potatoes will help them retain their bright color and prevent discoloration. It’s a simple trick that helps maintain the visual appeal of your dishes.
5. Essential in Snickerdoodle Cookies
Cream of tartar is a vital ingredient in snickerdoodle cookies. It gives them their signature tangy flavor and helps achieve the perfect chewy texture. If you’re making these classic cookies, don’t skip the cream of tartar!
How to Use Frontier Co-op® Cream of Tartar
Using cream of tartar is simple and straightforward:
- For baking: Combine 1/2 teaspoon of cream of tartar for every 1 teaspoon of baking soda in recipes.
- For stabilizing egg whites: Add 1/8 teaspoon of cream of tartar per egg white when whipping.
- For sugar syrups: Use 1/4 teaspoon of cream of tartar to prevent crystallization.
Be sure to follow specific recipe instructions for the best results.
