Original: That Buttermilk In Your Fridge Isn’t Actually Buttermilk
Most cartons labeled buttermilk sold in stores today are cultured milk, not the true traditional buttermilk left over from churning butter. The article explains that modern buttermilk is made by adding bacteria to low-fat milk, giving it a similar tang but a different origin. The point resonates with home bakers and cooks who use it in pancakes, biscuits and fried chicken recipes.
Why now: People are surprised to learn a common kitchen staple differs from its traditional namesake.
