Flat bag Potash

What should be potash? What are you supposed to do with it? Quite simply, similar to yeast, potash ensures that flat pastries such as gingerbread and other heavy doughs with a high sugar content rise. Unlike the yeast, the dough does not go up in height, but in width. Attention: Just because the dough goes into the width instead of height it is important to leave enough space between the individual cookies or the gingerbread when baking!
