“The Butter Churn” 1897 Ralph Hedley

Buttermilk is a tangy, dairy-based liquid often used in cooking and baking. It’s traditionally a byproduct of churning butter, but modern buttermilk is typically made by adding lactic acid bacteria to low-fat milk. This bacterial fermentation imparts its characteristic sour flavor and thickens the milk.

Buttermilk provides a pleasant acidity and moisture to recipes, especially in pancakes, biscuits, and marinades. It also aids in leavening, making baked goods rise. Additionally, buttermilk can be enjoyed as a refreshing drink on its own or blended with other ingredients for beverages and dressings, lending a delightful, tart quality.

There is no single international standard for buttermilk, as its composition and characteristics can vary from one region to another.
