Question

In order to make irish soda bread how do i sour the milk in order to mimic buttermilk,icant get it anywhere?

Answer 1

Take a "one cup" measuring cup and put 1 tablespoon of either lemon juice or any kind of vinegar along with milk to make it equal one cup and let stand for 5 minutes.  Now you have a great buttermilk for any recipe.

Answer 2

If you have no white vinegar, add lemon juice.

Answer 3

Supermarkets definitely sell buttermilk i have got it from there, did you ask any staff?

Answer 4

To each cup of milk, add tsp. of white vinegar.  Let sit for five minutes.  You know have buttermilk to make your soda bread.  Enjoy and Happy St. Paddy's Day!

Answer 5

Drop a few drops of lemon juice in the milk, stir and leave on the side for a day or so.

This is the same answer I gave yesterday to the nearly same question asked by you;

If you are looking for buttermilk as an ingredient in a recipe, here is a quick and easy substitution:

The ratio is simple:

1/2 pt regular milk (240 ml)

+ 1 TBSP (15 ml) cider vinegar

= 1/2 pt buttermilk or sour milk

Simply mix the above in a glass measure cup, leave sit for approx 5 minutes. Stir before addition to the recipe - yes, it may look curdled which is fine and won't affect the final product!

This ratio can be altered to make the quantity needed for a recipe; i.e. if only 120 ml is needed, then add only 1/2 the quantity of vinegar.

Cheers
