Perpetual Buttermilk

[@joanshealy1662]

Here’s a tip to use about half a cup in a jar of your mixture and add some unbleached all purpose flour to make a thickness of pancake batter and leave it on the counter for about 6 days stirring it a little everyday and boom you have a sourdough starter and you can make bread and rolls 😊

That is awesome! I'm going to have to try that. Thanks for the idea!

Many thanks, so glad to learn your method of making my own buttermilk!!! Thank you for sharing. I remember seeing my grandmother's buttermilk in her kitchen being made when I was a little girl. All the best to you.

Here’s my question. From whipping cream and making butter, the buttermilk expressed from the butter,do I have to add buttermilk to that, or leave on the counter & watch it?

[@RobinHolstein]

The milk you have left is already buttermilk. However, if you want the “tang” you need to add live culture if you used pasteurized milk. If unpasteurized I would not leave it at room temp more than overnight.

Do you keep it on the counter indefinitely or do I need to put it in the fridge when thickened?

[@RobinHolstein]

It needs refrigerated.

[@lauras4472]

How long does it keep? Or do I freeze it

[@RobinHolstein]

You just keep it in the fridge. It keeps for a long time. But, you want to use it.
