If you don't have buttermilk available you can easily make a substitute at home! Just measure out a scant cup of milk and add 1 tablespoon of either lemon juice or white vinegar. Let it sit for 5 to 10 minutes. It won't have quite the depth of flavor of real buttermilk, but it does the trick nicely in baking. Good luck! Posie at King Arthur.
