buttermilk (dict)
|
ButtermilkButtermilk is the liquid left over after producing butter from full-cream milk by the churning process. It has a slightly sour taste, which is usually pleasant when people are accustomed to it. Most of the modern, commercially-available, "buttermilk" in Western supermarkets is not genuine buttermilk but rather cultured buttermilk, that is milk to which souring agents (Streptococci bacteria) have been added to simulate the original product.
