    Buttermilk

    Need to use up some buttermilk? Or, just love how much buttermilk can add flavor to a recipe?

    Get started with my guide on how to make homemade buttermilk, then get cooking (or baking!). 

    These buttermilk biscuits are light, flaky, and delicious. Buttermilk is also a star in this recipe for Southern-style chicken and biscuits, in this old-fashioned sausage gravy and it also makes the most tender chicken when used in the marinade for queso chicken.
