One of the best things my grandmother used to make was buttermilk “ice cream”. She simply dissolved sugar in buttermilk and froze it. We thought we were having the best treat in the world!  It was so simple and so good.  I still make it every so often, but I just don’t buy buttermilk that much.  I usually find that when I do, I use a cup or so to make biscuits or pancakes, then the rest just goes to waste sitting in my fridge. Since I learned that I can mix vinegar or lemon juice into milk to make a substitute for the buttermilk, I then had to run to the internet every time to remember the recipe.  I’m so happy to have all of this information in one place now.
