This is good if you are getting low on buttermilk and need to make more, especially if youre not going out to the store anytime soon. You can also make buttermilk by adding 1 Tbsp. of white vinegar to 1 cup of milk...and let sit for 5 min.. this is useful to use in a recipe, when buttermilk is called for..and you dont have any in the fridge!
this is fine and dandy if you are going to be using buttermilk forever but if i needed buttermilk for 1 recipe and didnt have buttermilk on hand....this video would be useless.
for everyone saying "lol...buttermilk to make buttermilk" this is a seeding method. its like bakers using a premade yeast loaf that they add to the main bread loaf....its just keeps recycling
Christ, just do it this way: Buy some fresh heavy cream and let it sit for about 12 hours - maybe a little longer at room temperature. It will begin to sour - which is what you want. Then whip the cream until the butter comes. What's left is a chunk of butter and some nice, tangy buttermilk. Yes, it's more trouble than it's worth, but at least you have some fresh butter AND real buttermilk. Fuck buying buttermilk and raw milk to make buttermilk. Silly.

@ForexStrategySecrets Homemade is fine. In some cases, It's cheaper to buy commercial buttermilk to produce more (homemade) more buttermilk then to produce homemade buttermilk from scratch. Especially if you have no cattle.
I was going to ask the same thing. If you bought buttermilk, why make buttermilk? Is it the culturing? I get the creme fraiche recipe, because it's different. Explain please!
@paydn202 The same reason you buy yogurt to make yogurt... you use it as a starter so once you buy that first bottle you never have to buy buttermilk ever again you just take 1 tbs. out of the last batch and make more!
@paydn202 I guess it's more about making your buttermilk stretch. lol I know you can also make buttermilk by just mixing milk and lemon juice together, although I don't remember how much of which.
@Ballira Nah, lemon juice + milk = lemon juice in milk. It approximates the tangy taste, but that's about it. Also, no, this is not about stretching your buttermilk. It's not just diluting your buttermilk with milk. It's about creating new buttermilk from normal milk. It's about making your buttermilk last forever, for the price of just plain milk.
@paydn202 Because then you don't have to buy it ever again after that. Just buy milk, which is cheaper, and use your own buttermilk to make more buttermilk!
@CogitoErgoCogitoSum Try 1 tea sp of white vinegar per cup of milk, and then just cover it in the fridge...works pretty good! Or just buy the buttermilk; it's faster anyway. Thanks for the follow up!
Yes, you need the bacteria that, I guess ferment is the most applicable word here not perfect but close, ferments the milk into what is called buttermilk. Usually things that need a starter are somewhat hard to make wholly on your own. Such as sourdough, most people don't want to go to the trouble of growing and nurturing a starter on their own so they get a premade grown starter. Same deal here, you use the store bought for its cultures only.
@CogitoErgoCogitoSum probably so that when u have some buttermilk to start it, u wont need any more later on because ull have the buttermilk u made to start the next batch, if that made any sense
@CogitoErgoCogitoSum , That is kind of like saying " I don't get it. In order to grow real carrots I have to go BUY carrot seeds? IF I'm going to buy seeds why not the whole bag of carrots?"
Here's why: Cultures are a live organism, not a solution that can be created by mixing shelf ingredients. So in effect you are buying buttermilk-culture-seeds to grow more buttermilk as needed without paying $5 per quart. You pay $5 once. EVER.
damn, I have to walk all the way out the city, just to get some raw milk, and buy buttermilk, to get buttermilk to make buttermilk....

I made some of this yesterday, but although it smelled like buttermilk, it had the consistency of thin yogurt and a sweet taste to it. Any thoughts?

Ummm...using buttermilk to make buttermilk? Lol defeats the purpose of making homemade buttermilk if you don't have it on hand doesn't it?
