Buttermilk substitute...Put a couple teaspoons of vinegar in a measuring cup and then fill it to the 1 1/2 c mark with milk. Let it stand for a few moments...
I usually keep dry buttermilk on hand for those times, but use this in a pinch.
Robiyah, I think its milk and a small amount of lemon juice or vinegar but I don't know the proportions.

I'd try it as bread & as a biscuit, because I am a bread fiend...since I am not having bread on this diet.
