Right! I was just going on a small rant about this to my coworker who I then realized is one of those ill informed people who still thinks msg is bad for you. I use like 1.5 tbs in a large pot of pho max! I can’t even imagine what 4 tbs in 5 cups of water would taste like! He is also using too much star anise. He must have barely functional tastebuds or something…

In case you aren’t joking, no. Cream of tarter is an acid that you can add to baked goods that don’t have any other acids in them to react with the baking soda and give you some rise in your dough. Of course you can also just use baking powder which already contains an acid for the reaction.
