Important Considerations for Self-Rising Flour:
Self-rising flour is all-purpose flour with baking powder and salt added. Its density is very similar to all-purpose flour. A common weight for 1 Metric Cup (250ml) is around **125-130 grams**.
Use the "spoon and level" method for measuring.
Do not substitute self-rising flour for all-purpose flour (or vice-versa) without adjusting leavening agents and salt in the recipe.
For baking accuracy, **measuring by weight is always recommended.**
