Adding to much cream of tartar?!


Question:

Adding to much cream of tartar?

I am new at cooking, well I added 2/8 tbs. of cream of tartar while using only one egg. Can this make you sick or kill you? I just need to know if I need to throw the cookies out or not.


Answers:

Let's see how much you added...
2/8 (tbs) tablespoons is 1/8 tablespoon which is 3/4 teaspoons (tsp). How much were you supposed to add, 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon?

It will NOT make you sick or kill you, but may throw off the taste just a little bit. Also, you may end up with fluffier cookies (more leavening). Just bake some cookies and see how they taste.
