 | Missing Buttermilk? No problem. All you need is: 1 cup whole or 2% milk 1 tablespoon lemon juice or white vinegar Combine the milk and lemon juice. Let stand 5-10 minutes. Let the mixture stand at room temperature for 5-10 minutes. When the buttermilk is finished, the milk will be a bit thicker and you should see small curdled bits, however your buttermilk will not be as thick as store bought buttermilk.
