It's not a perfect substitute, but it'll generally work in a pinch!
In some recipes, 3/4 cup of plain, unflavored yogurt and 1/4 cup of whole milk will also work as a substitute for buttermilk.

I always buy something for a recipe that I don't use all of it and it sits in the fridge until it spoils. Something i picked up and you may have as well is liquids like buttermilk, stocks, juices, I will freeze in the ice cube trays(after I measure out what it takes to fill up one cube). Then place these frozen cubes in a ziplock bag, label and date it. then when a recipe calls for buttermilk, etc, I take out the appropriate amt of cubes. I also do this with eggs.
ReplyDeleteYes! I pretty much go through my buttermilk, but I freeze all sorts of other things & couldn't live without my ice cube trays Anthony!!
DeleteI make my buttermilk by using 150ml milk and 4 tps white vinger or 4tps lemon juice.
