Re:homemade butter!

[Guest guest]

,

I am so glad you brought up butter! WHat exactly is the buttermilk? I

thought butter was cream whipped to tarnation. But another person said no,

you make to make buttermilk from cream, and then butter is made from

buttermilk. This confused me since I culture buttermilk from regular milk,

not cream. Are there two types of buttermilk??

Carol,

If I may answer, buttermilk is what is left over after making butter

from cream. The cream separates into butter and buttermilk. Cultured

buttermilk would result from the cream being cultured or the

buttermilk cultured afterward.
