I put a little on my finger and taste it. I can taste the salt and baking powder.

SR flour has baking soda in it plus a yest additive, plain doesn't

Self rising flour contains a small amount of baking powder. Approximately 1-1/2 teaspoons per 1 cup of flour. This will not make a big difference in most of your recipes. If your really worried about it mix it half and half with plain flour.
