Quick breads are fast and easy to&nbsp;make as a dessert or a side dish, but sometimes even the most prepared bakers find themselves without a key ingredient on hand. If you noticed you&#39;re low on baking soda, you&#39;ll be happy to know this ingredient is not 100% necessary to ensure a quality loaf. You can find a great baking soda substitute for banana bread, cinnamon bread, apple bread, or even savory quick bread varieties&nbsp;with a little work! Here, you&#39;ll find a handy list of baking soda substitutes you may have lying around your own kitchen.&nbsp;

Baking soda&#39;s primary purpose is to <a href="https://www.bonappetit.com/test-kitchen/cooking-tips/article/baking-soda" target="_blank">create carbon dioxide bubbles</a> that allow baked goods to rise, creating a delicious light texture. While helpful, baking soda is not necessary depending on the texture you like. You can easily find a recipe for quick bread without baking soda, but if you need to adjust an existing recipe, you have options. In most cases, your best bet is baking powder. As baking powder is made of baking soda, it makes a quick and easy substitute that shouldn&#39;t change the final product dramatically. However, it&#39;s not the only route if your cabinets are lacking both ingredients.&nbsp;Cake flours and self rising flours often help baked goods stay on the light side and separating egg whites from yolks can also prevent a heavy texture.&nbsp;

Below, you&#39;ll find a list of suggestions for making the best quick bread without baking soda. Vote up the most helpful ingredient adjustments below!&nbsp;

The best ways to cook salmon are those recipes and cooking methods that create the perfectly tender and flaky fish. From the classic baked salmon to smoked salmon and grilled salmon, all of these best ways to make salmon produce delicious dishes packed with protein, omega-3 fatty acids and vitamin D. Salmon isn't just healthy, but also really easy to cook. Start with a good quality salmon fillet that is rich in color and does not smell in an off-putting way. Next, marinade it in a combination of oil, an acid like lemon juice and seasonings. How you cook the fish after that is up to you. Grilling or broiling salmon will give it a crispy and smoky flavor, as will smoking it. Pan-searing or crusting salmon locks in the delicious flavor of the salmon plus adds a little excess goodness on the outside. Baking, either in a pan or in a foil pouch, creates deliciously moist and flaky fish few could turn down.However you cook salmon, the only thing you don't want to do is over cook it. Perfectly cooked salmon will flake apart with a fork and have just a tiny tint of translucence left. Enjoy, salmon lovers!

Fast casual, or fresh casual dining includes restaurants that offer the best, freshest ingredients available in a fast-food kind of setting, with quick service. Need a healthy burrito made with free range chicken? That&#39;s fast casual. The idea is that yes, this is food made fast, but it&#39;s not typically as unhealthy as traditional fast food. What&#39;s the most tasty fast casual restaurant around? That&#39;s up to you to decide, with your votes. Be sure to add your favorite fresh casual restaurants that aren&#39;t listed, too!

In an economy that&#39;s struggled in recent years, fast casual restaurants have managed to prosper (in most cases). The demand for fresher, higher quality, healthier fast food options no doubt has driven consumers to seek out fast casual dining, whether it&#39;s Mexican, deli-style, bakeries, burgers or even pizza joints.

Some of the most popular fast casual restaurants are big chains, including Chipotle, <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/best-panera-menu-items/ranker-food" target="_blank">Panera Bread</a>, Zaxby&#39;s and Panda Express. Each of these fast casual chains represents a different kind of food option, but each has done extremely well. One thing all of these places has in common with fast food restaurants: There is no full table service. It&#39;s quick, it&#39;s simple and it&#39;s tremendously popular among foodies who don&#39;t want to eat at regular fast food chains or more traditional family restaurant chains, either.

Again, be sure to vote for the restaurants that you think are truly the best fast casual eateries around, vote down any you don&#39;t like -- and add any that are missing.&nbsp;

How do you like your salad? Just like we all have our own <a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/best-salad-ingredients/chef-jen">favorite salad toppings and ingredients</a>, we each have that one favorite salad dressing, be it ranch, Italian, or even a sweet and tangy honey mustard. What do you reach for to pour over lettuce and other vegetables and things? This ranking of the very best salad dressings is based on personal preferences of voters, with some people preferring creamy dressings, like blue cheese and thousand island, and others opting for vinaigrettes. Whatever your favorite, we can all agree that the dressing makes the salad. Simply tossing vegetables, cheeses, meats, nuts, or fruits into a bowl starts to create a salad, but the dish is not complete&nbsp;until a favorite salad dressing is mixed in.

While many salads have specific dressings that complete the recipes, such as the garlicky Caesar or oil-based Greek dressing, once you go beyond these classic choices, the variations on the traditional salad dressing varieties are nearly endless. Ranch dressing lovers can choose from varieties with bacon, cheese and spice, among others, while Italian dressing can be creamy or oily and include secondary flavorings such as zesty seasonings and Mediterranean flavorings like feta cheese and lemon. Vinaigrettes are equally as versatile with choices like raspberry, balsamic and red wine among the most popular varieties.

What are the names of the best salad dressings? Categories are so broad, tasty, and versatile that they are not limited for use on salads. Ranch dressing and bleu cheese are especially popular as everyday condiments served alongside pizza, chicken wings, and even <a href="http://www.ranker.com/crowdranked-list/best-french-fries?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">french fries</a>.&nbsp;

However you choose to enjoy your favorite salad dressings - be it as a condiment, on a sandwich, or on a simple salad - with so many choices and variations on the traditional types, it&#39;s easy to find a salad dressing to suit everyone&#39;s different tastes.

Anyone can make a simple garden salad or a Caesar&nbsp;salad, but these salads offer something more than the standard lettuce, tomatoes and cheese and are the best of the best out there.

Most fast food restaurants stick to a few trends with their salads offering Asian flavors, Southwest toppings, fruit and everyone&#39;s favorite bacon. Visit a fast-casual shop like Quiznos or <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/best-panera-menu-items/ranker-food" target="_blank">Panera Bread</a> and you&#39;ll find a wider variety of flavors and toppings.

Lists for every local, transplant, and visitor to the Best Coast.

Welcome to Los Angeles!

Everyone in Los Angeles knows the best eats come from a truck, not a restaurant, and the best L.A. food trucks prove that. Open night and day, these popular food trucks travel from location to location across Southern California serving up a selection of food on the go. From the Kogi BBQ truck that started the food truck craze to others that specialize in ethnic food or sweets, it&#39;s easy to find good eats sure to please nearly everyone.

While L.A. food trucks often simply show up at scheduled locations, many food truck enthusiasts enjoy the hunt of tracking down their favorite truck in the city. Luckily for these foodies, the food trucks use the internet and social media to communicate their locations and specials. (If you can&#39;t make it out to one of these trucks, that doesn&#39;t mean you can&#39;t experience <a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/the-very-best-epic-meal-time-videos/greg">Epic Meal Time</a>.)

In addition to posting their menus, schedules, and planned locations on their official websites, many food trucks will inform their fans of other news, such as specials, using their Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook accounts. Also, a bunch of secondary websites strictly devoted to tracking Los Angeles food trucks provide&nbsp;food truck maps, locators, or trackers.
