I’ve soaked my chickpeas and I’m all set to prepare my falafel mix. Should I use baking soda or baking powder to achieve a fluffier texture? I’m a bit unsure!

  1. For a fluffier texture in your falafel, you should add baking soda to the mix. Baking soda helps to create a lighter consistency and can give your falafel a bit of a rise while cooking. Baking powder is typically used for baked goods rather than in fried items like falafel. Just a teaspoon should do the trick! Happy cooking!
