INGREDIENTS:
1 cup whole milk
1 teaspoon lemon juice or white vinegar
INSTRUCTIONS:
Mix your acid together with your milk. Many people prefer using lemon juice to curdle the milk, but vinegar is also used. Lemon juice add a lighter note that cuts through the richness of the milk perfectly while still making it tangy. Stir together and let milk stand for 5 - 10 minutes. During this time, the milk will begin to curdle. Small solids will begin to form as a result of adding the lemon juice or vinegar. Use your buttermilk as you would any other buttermilk.
