Money-saving tip: Make your own buttermilk

We love quarts of creamy buttermilk from the store, but sometimes you don't need that much. Here's how to make your own to use in a recipe.

In a glass dish, gently stir together:

1 tablespoon lemon juice or white wine vinegar

1 scant cup milk (whole, 2%, or heavy cream)

Let sit for 5 minutes. Voila!
