Buttermilk
What is Buttermilk?
Orignially buttermilk was the liquid left after butter was churned but today it is produced by adding special bacteria to nonfat or lowfat milk, giving it a slightly thickened texture and tangy flavor. Buttermilk is also available in powdered form which is very convenient for use in baked goods and batters.
