Yum!
Comes out deliciously thick and slightly tart? Really like it! Enjoy!
Yum!
Love the cultured buttermilk. Comes out thick and slightly tart. Delicious! Enjoy!
Turned out good.
First time it is almost too thick, but I did add the instant nonfat dry milk. I might try without it next time. I really enjoy the flavor of this culture.
The Best!
Although I have ordered and love quite a few of the cultures, this one is my favorite! It is easy to use, works beautifully, and adds a better flavor to my breads and biscuits than store-bought. And I am not the only one that thinks this - quite a few of my friends and neighbors are always wanting more buttermilk. Consequently, this is also the culture that I order most!
Love this product!
I love being able to make buttermilk on my own counter without the thickeners/additives that come in store-bought varieties. It creates thick, delicious buttermilk that makes my pancakes fluffy and salad dressings and dips tangy.
