Buttermilk
Buttermilk is not always readily available in local stores - or you maybe just stuck for recipe you want to make now! You can make your own for use in recipes
Materials
- 250 ml milk
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
Instructions
- Measure milk into a jug and add lemon juice. Stir and leave to stand for a few minutes
Notes
You could also substitute with a mix of 50%/50% Greek yoghurt and water, or just 75% yoghurt and 25% water. However, if the recipe is also using bicarbonate of soda then do also add the lemon juice as the acid in the lemon is necessary to react with bicarbonate of soda to act as a rising agent.
