Content: When life gives you no buttermilk or sour cream, make your own buttermilk substitute. Thank goodness I always have lemons, vinegar, and milk on hand. Not that you need all three but if you have milk and either a lemon or vinegar in your pantry, a tangy “buttermilk” can be made in about 5-10 minutes. By adding a tablespoon (I like to add 1.5 tablespoons) of either lemon juice or white (or cider) vinegar to a cup of milk minus a tablespoon, you add enough acidity to it that it starts to slightly transform into a tangy curdled milk – exactly what we want. Some recipes call for waiting 5 minutes, but this is when I would encourage you to check your buttermilk after 5 minutes. If it looks slightly curdled, then yes, you have achieved what you needed the milk to do. However, if it doesn’t look slightly curdled (like what it looks like when milk or cream goes bad), wait a few more minutes. Another tip I would add is to taste the milk. What you are looking for as far as taste is concerned is a noticeable tang to the milk. If after stirring the milk and tasting it the tanginess is faint, add another teaspoon of lemon juice or vinegar and wait 2 minutes.
