IT'S THE FIRST DAY OF SUMMER!
Which is really the longest day of the entire year. Wouldn't you think that the summer solstice would occur in the middle of summer, not at the beginning. Well.
How have all of your summers been so far? Fun? Productive? Filled with soft fabric and yummy beverages?
I want to share this really easy way to make a buttermilk substitute with you guys. Because I have nothing better to do and I can. :)
By the way, buttermilk actually has no butter in it. Real buttermilk is, hypothetically, the liquid left behind when you churn milk into butter.
But something tells me that buttermilk companies don't churn butter every time they make some buttermilk. I dunno.
Okay, before I decide this is too weird to post, here goes.
BUTTERMILK SUBSTITUTE
Add a tablespoon of white vinegar (or lemon juice) to a measuring cup.
Fill the cup up to the 1-cup line with milk.
Stir and let sit for 5 minutes.
Ta-da!
Now before you leave and question my sanity, let me inform you-- buttermilk has health benefits! Okay so that probably didn't really help my case....
It's good for digestion, and it has calcium, phosphorus, and potassium. Yum.
BUT WAIT. Don't make it just to drink it.
I tried that. Not good. Let's just say........
Okay it was just really sour. JUST not good.
But if you need it for a recipe, this is perfect!
I'm sorry this is such a random post. It's not even past midnight.
Here's a GIF that accurately illustrates how I feel when I ask myself "Where did all the time go?"
And I don't doubt that this is you right now if you read my entire post. Buttermilk. I am entirely too weird.
Anyways, enjoy loveliness and remember to muse!
