I'm not sure about the baking soda, but I think it has something to do
with foaming? Just a guess.

One of these days, I'll make the lime marmalade I'm looking for. In the
meantime, the baking soda is to reduce the pH.


Oops, blond hair day, then.
Should be: ...baking soda is to *increase* the pH. I always get the words
mixed up. The chemistry part, no, just the words.
