How do you use buttermilk?
I just made buttermilk salad dressing from my old Whole Foods for the Whole Family cookbook, pretty close to this one. I tend to use fresh parsley, garlic, and season salt because we eat it quickly. Measure and shake in a Mason jar and don't fuss too much about ratios, add more mayo to make thick like a dip.
Thanks!
Love,

I sometimes use it to marinate meat. You can marinate the meat in a ziplock bag for 3-4 days and then roast it. It makes a sort of German sauerbraten style meat. I'll look around for the recipe, if you are interested.

Biscuits, cakes, scones, pancakes--I love buttermilk (or sour cream or yogurt) in baked goods.

Since you already have Whole Foods for the Whole Family, try their biscuit recipe. I always make drop biscuits, because I'm far too lazy to roll and cut, but we love them!

Angie, I couldn't remember which cookbook had that Sauerbraten recipe, but it was very similar to this one that I found online. The buttermilk marinade really made the meat tender. Main difficulty was just planning a few days ahead. This would be a great dish for a German saint's feast day. Maybe St. Boniface? Or, since it's more of an autumn dish, perhaps St. Ursula?

At the bottom of the blog post is the coleslaw recipe I have used from America's Test Kitchen.
P.S. I can't vouch for the blog, I just wanted to see if I could save some time by not having to type the recipe up.

Mom frequently made Irish Soda Bread using Buttermilk... Which is what I fondly connect it with.

I'm not familiar with this recipe, but it did jog my memory. Years ago I used to always make a recipe very much like Buttermilk Bran Muffins. This is a batter for raisin bran whole wheat muffins that keeps for 6 weeks in the frig. Whenever you want muffins, just pour the batter in a muffin tin and bake as many as you need. They are very tasty and convenient! I think I only stopped making them because I was trying to cut out sugar. My recipe used sugar and white flour; this one is a bit more healthy with whole wheat and honey, but still pretty sweet. The kids loved these, though!
Angie, this might fit your fast, good food search, too!

This reminded me that I also use it to marinate (and then also in the batter/coating) fried chicken. Makes the most tender delicious chicken. Got the idea from Alton Brown and he was right (as usual).

You all are the best!
Caroline, you are right...buttermilk may not be the cheapest (what dairy is?) but it does last for a long time and it can make common food taste so much better. I'm a fan!
