Guest guest Posted January 23, 2006 Report Share Posted January 23, 2006 On another group I participate in, someone posted the below " substitute " list. Now, not ALL of this is applicable to the SBD of course (and I'm not going to edit the list) BUT, much of it is useful and can be used to adapt ingredients within the SBD framework, so I thought I'd forward it over for anyone interested. ********************************************************* Ingredient Substitute List Dairy -1 cup butter = 1 cup margarine. -1 cup margarine = 1 cup shortening & 1/2 tsp salt. -1 cup margarine = 1 cup butter. -1 cup margarine = 7/8 cup veg oil & 1/2 tsp salt. -1 cup margarine = 7/8 cup lard & 1/2 tsp salt. 1 cup Butter = * 7/8 to 1 cup hydrogenated fat plus 1/2 tsp salt -2 cups Milk, (whole) = 1 cup evaporated milk & 1 cup water. -1 cup Half & Half Cream = 7/8 cup milk plus 1 tbsp butter -1 cup heavy cream = 1 cup evaporated milk. -1 cup heavy cream = 3/4 cup milk plus 1/3 cup butter -1 cup light cream = 1 cup evaporated milk. -1 cup whipped cream = 1 cup frozen whipped topping, thawed -1 cup Buttermilk = 1/4 cup milk & 3/4 cup yogurt. -1 cup Buttermilk = 1 tbsp vinegar or lemon juice and add enough milk to make 1 cup, let stand for 5 minutes & DO NOT STIR. -1 cup Buttermilk = Use plain yogurt or thinned sour cream instead. -1 cup Cultured milk = 1 tbsp vinegar or lemon juice and add enough milk to make 1 cup, let stand for 5 minutes & DO NOT STIR. -1 cup Crème fraiche = 1 cup of heavy cream and 1 tbsp plain yogurt, stir together & let stand for 6 hours at room temperature.
