substitutions

[hyltonginger]

I forgot how much vinegar to add to whole milk to make a substitute for buttermilk...can someone help me out?

hi hyltonginger.
you add 1 tablespoon of vinegar, or lemon juice, both are okay as they are acids,which curdles the milk to sour it.i prefeer to use lemon juice as it gives just a tad of flavor to the cake or recipe.you don't taste the lemon juice but it does impart that something that you can't put your finger on.
hope that helps

happy cooking
