Note about this food

Ammonium bicarbonate is a raising agent that leaves nothing behind: in the oven it breaks down into ammonia, carbon dioxide and water, all three of which go off as gas or steam. That is why it is used for thin, crisp biscuits where a residue would be tasted. There is no carbohydrate and no protein in it to begin with, which is what the twelve axes here look for.
