Dankie Raaitjie.
Kremetart of cream of tartar (die bestanddeel waarmee selfreismeel van gemaak word) is van die kremetartboom (baobab) afkomstig.
Dit word nie net vir bak en brou gebruik nie, kyk 'n bietjie hier!

This very inexpensive, fine white powder is fantastic. If you’re looking for a more natural cleaner around your home – cream of tartar is one thing you should always have on hand (along with baking soda and white vinegar, of course!).

Tartaric acid of wynsteensuur:
If you are planning to make meringues or something else that needs to have stiff egg whites, simply add a teaspoon of tartaric acid when you are beating and they will stiffen up much quicker.
Always keep tartaric acid to clean off those horrible brown scales that appear in your kettle. Mix a teaspoonful with 400 ml white vinegar and 100 ml water. Boil and leave to stand until the mixture has cooled off. Pour off and brush away the scales easily and rinse thoroughly so you wonâ??t get that acid taste in your next cup of tea.
It is great for cleaning copper. (By the way have you noticed how ridiculous the price of Brasso has become?) For copper simply dip a cloth into the tartaric acid and rub all over the item. Rinse and polish with another clean cloth.
You can buy tartaric acid at most supermarkets.
