Hi Ladies, Has anyone ever tried the 'vinegar in reg milk' when a recipe calls for buttermilk but you are out of it? Does it change the texture, this would be for bread. And how much vinegar to milk?? Thanks Ladies for any advice

Yes! I have done this. I learned it from my mother. I've used vinegar and lemon juice. I don't know an exact measurement, but when I need buttermilk and don't have any I usually just add a cap full of vinegar to the milk. Let the milk stand about 5 minutes and it will curdle.
Did you also know you can substitute vinegar for eggs in most baking recipies?? :)

Also, in the aisle where they have dry milks, etc. there is
dried buttermilk - you just mix with water. I use it for baking
all the time - I put the dry buttermilk in with my dry ingredients, then add the water when appropriate. No lumps, no fuss and it never goes bad! |

Here is what I found:
Cool, thanks for bringing it up, I learned something today!
1 cup buttermilk = 1 cup yogurt
1 cup buttermilk = 1 cup milk PLUS 1 Tablespoon vinegar or lemon juice (let stand for 10 minutes before using in recipe)
1 cup buttermilk = 1 cup milk PLUS 1-3/4 teaspoons cream of tartar
1 cup buttermilk = 1 cup water PLUS 4 Tablespoons powdered buttermilk
(reconstitute before using or add dry to dry ingredients and wet to wet ingredients before mixing
1 cup buttermilk = 1/4 cup milk PLUS 3/4 cup yogurt
1 cup buttermilk = 8.5 ounces
1 cup buttermilk = 242 grams
