No. Buttermilk was originally simply what was left after churning cream into butter. It was very thin and not very appetizing. Nowadays, buttermilk is made with special cultures and emulsifiers, it is thick and creamy, and to some is very tasty.

What do you do if you overheat buttermilk?

If you accidentally overheat buttermilk, it may curdle or separate. To salvage it, try whisking it vigorously to recombine the mixture. If it remains lumpy, you can strain it through a fine mesh sieve or use it in recipes where texture isn't critical, like pancakes or muffins. For future use, heat buttermilk gently and avoid boiling to prevent curdling.

When making buttermilk can you use limes instead of lemons?

Yes, you can use limes instead of lemons to make buttermilk. Both limes and lemons provide the acidity needed to curdle milk, resulting in a similar tangy flavor. Simply mix 1 tablespoon of lime juice with 1 cup of milk, let it sit for about 5-10 minutes, and it will thicken and sour just like traditional buttermilk.

What is the best ingredient to use as a substitute for buttermilk in a recipe?

Melt a tablespoon of real butter in a cup of milk. It isn't a perfect substitution, but it should work reasonably well.Clarification:Adding butter to milk as a substitue for buttermilk will not work. Contrary to its name, buttermilk has no butter in it; it is actually very low in fat. The best subtitution for buttermilk is a teaspoon of lemon juice or vinegar to each cup of milk. Since buttermilk has a higher acid content than "sweet milk", the addition of an acid will result in a substitution extremely close to that of buttermilk.Simply add the lemon juice or vinegar and stir, then let stand a few minutes for the milk to "curdle", and it will look, taste and work pretty much the same as commercial buttermilk.
