How Do You Make Buttermilk With Vinegar?
Buttermilk is an ingredient called for in many recipes. Yet unless you do a lot of cooking and baking, is an item that most people do not keep in the refrigerator. Fortunately, there are a number of ways to make a buttermilk substitution that works and tastes the same as the real thing. One way to do this is with regular milk and plain, white household vinegar. Step 1 Measure 1 tbsp. of white vinegar into a 1-cup measuring cup. Step 2 Fill the measuring cup with regular whole or skim milk. Step 3 Stir gently to distribute the vinegar throughout the milk. Step 4 Let the mixture sit for five minutes so that the milk begins to coagulate slightly. Step 5 Use the buttermilk substitution in any recipe calling for buttermilk as one of the ingredients. Step 6 Store unused portions of buttermilk in a sealed glass jar in the refrigerator.
