Step-by-Step Guide to Making Buttermilk at Home

• Buttermilk, known as buttermilch, is a byproduct of the butter-making process from cream and is extensively utilized in Anglo-American cuisine. It is distinguished by its sour taste, which imparts a subtle yet pleasant tang to sweets and baked goods, while also enhancing their softness. Beyond its use in desserts such as pies and cakes, buttermilk serves as an effective marinade for meat and game, helping to tenderize them. There are two primary methods for producing buttermilk: the traditional method using cream and an alternative method using yogurt. Below is a guide detailing the production process and required quantities. Please follow the instructions provided.

How to Make a Buttermilk?

Ingredients for 125 g Buttermilk with Cream

• Liquid fresh cream: 250 ml

• 90 g butter

Preparation:

• Pour the fresh cream into a clean bowl. Using an electric mixer or a planetary mixer with whisks, begin to whip the cream. Continue whipping until the cream separates and becomes solid, indicating that the milk and fat have separated. This process typically takes about 20 minutes. Once this stage is reached, transfer the solid fat to a fine-mesh strainer and press it with a spatula to extract all the liquid. Compact the solid fat to form the butter, while the remaining liquid is the buttermilk. From a 250 ml package of fresh cream, you will obtain approximately 90 g of butter and 125 ml of buttermilk.

Ingredients for 125 g Buttermilk with Yogurt

• 1 teaspoon of lemon juice

• 63 g low-fat yogurt

• 63 g skimmed milk

Preparation:

• This version is undoubtedly more convenient and quicker, offering a viable alternative to traditional buttermilk. Begin by squeezing the lemon and ensuring the seeds are filtered out. Pour the low-fat yogurt into a bowl and dilute it using a hand whisk. Next, add the skimmed milk, followed by the lemon juice. Mix thoroughly until a homogeneous mixture is achieved. Allow it to rest for 10 minutes before incorporating it into your preparation.

NOTE:

• The buttermilk can be stored in the refrigerator for about 1 week or in the freezer for 2–3 weeks.
