Buttermilk ?

[Frenchy]

I like to cook and bake, but more and more recipies include buttermilk. I've not been able to find any in the shops around my place... does anyone know where I can find some, and if it really makes a difference compared to normal milk ?
Thanks !

I used to be able to find buttermilk at Great and also at Olivers, I think. Check there. good luck! Never substituted normal milk for it.

Buttermilk is totally worth it

ThreeSixty sell the powdered kind (baking section). Its really worth it because it lasts longer

Park and Shop also sells it.

Park n Shop at Parkview occasionally have it in stock. More often I have seen it at Marketplace at Repulse Bay.

I do think it makes a big difference in the taste of scones etc.

Go to 360 supermarket. They have stock constantly!

Maybe the ParkN'Shop in my place has it then... but I don't even know what it's supposed to look like. Is it like fresh milk ? do you mix the powder with water ?
