you can add lemon juice to milk. I have had to do that several times. I don't remember the proportions though. I think it is like a tablespoon to every cup? You might be able to search the net for directions. I have my Southern Living cookbook that I pull out everytime I have to use it. I hate to have to buy that quart of buttermilk for just a cup or two of the stuff!!!

you can just use regular milk. it will not have the same tang, but it will work.

I find that buttermilk keeps for quite a long time.

You can also use vinegar....does the same thing if you don't have lemon juice. I think it's a tablespoon as well per cup.

You can also add 1 tablespoon vinager to 1 cup milk and let it set a couple of minutes. That's all I ever use and it works fine.

I very rarely use buttermilk, so bought the dried buttermilk in my baking section to keep on hand.

Milk with vinegar works beautifully, we don't get buttermilk in China and that's the way I do it
