I'VE JUST BOUGHT A PASTRY BOOK(The essential Dessert Cookbook) and some of the recipies, call for self rising flour. Is there a conversion chart or anything like that available?

Thanks

If you look at the label it should indicate what percent the BP is vs the flour, at a guess I'd say 1 or 2%.
About 1/2 oz per lb flour.
I make scones every mornin and never weigh it.
The proportion of liquid to flour seems to have a bigger affect, I kinda don't measure the liquid either.
