Buttermilk

This is an appeal on behalf of a group of food bloggers who are friends of Briana Brownlow @ Figs With Bri. Bri was diagnosed with breast cancer two and half years ago. A mastectomy, chemotherapy and two years of relatively good health later, the cancer is back. It has metastasized to other parts of her body. At the age of 15, Bri lost her 41-year old mother to the disease. Now, she’s waging her

Strawberry shortcakes are one of the quintessential summer desserts, largely because fresh strawberries are so incredibly tempting when they are at their peak. The desserts also require minimal prep work, which is nice on a hot day. Taking “minimal prep work” to an extreme, you can even by pre-made “shortcakes” at the grocery store these days, meaning that a bottle of whipped cream and a p

While this pie may sound like something that you could have found in a diner 50 years ago (and maybe you could have), it turned out not only to be much better than I ever anticipated, but to be one of the most enjoyable pies I’ve had in recent memory. The flavors were vibrant and well-balanced, the pie looked beautiful and it was quite easy to prepare. To put it in a word, it looked and tasted f

"Elise, I have the perfect recipe for your website!" my young friend Audrey (age 10) exclaimed recently. "Blueberry buttermilk pancakes!". Audrey loves making these blueberry pancakes for her family.

One of the things I love about bran muffins is that they are so choke-full of good things it almost seems disingenuous to call them "muffins." These muffins have a rustic, hearty taste that is a far cry from the sugary, buttery, over-sized muffins being pimped to us from every coffee counter. On the other hand, this version of my bran muffins has a subtle orange that plays off the chopped figs

"When life hands you a lemon, say, "Oh yeah, I like lemons. What else ya got?"Henry Rollins GLAZED LEMON BUTTERMILK POUND CAKEThis cake is SO good & is one of our favourites. It's a simple, no fail cake, with a light & delicate crumb. It brings back memories of old-fashioned tea cakes, home-made just like we loved them, & with the fresh tangy taste of lime! Both my SIL, & another close friend, swear that this is the perfect tea cake. I had misplaced this recipe a while ago, & my friend from Kiev has been kind enough to send it back...as she said "Your recipe back to you"!The lemony flavours are enhanced further when you drizzle the hot cake with a lime/lemon sugar glaze icing...PERFECTO!! It's delicious on its own, & also makes for a pretty dessert with whipped cre

You start at Reedy Creek Park that is off of 42nd about two blocks East down Riverside Drive. The trail goes West along the James River called "Upper Buttermilk" to the "Nickel Bridge (161). You then have to ride over the bridge to the North side of the river. This is called The "North Bank" and you bike East through the cemetery to Tredegar Street. You then go South on the footbridge under the Robert E. Lee Bridge (301/1). That brings you to Belle Isle.You can ride all over this area with a number of trails that are from beginner to expert. You will encounter many people on B.I depending on what time of year it is. After this, you then go on the "Lower Buttermilk" trail biking west, skirting Riverside Drive and the train tracks along the banks of the James River. After completing this section, you will end back up at Reedy Creek Park where you began. This loop, depending on how much you ride on Belle Isle, will give you about 9.5 miles.What is your opinion?Blogroll Me! Subscri

Mark and I got in a 7.8 mile ride on the trail system yesterday evening. It was a good ride and i liked the trails better then i had before. I will hope to be able to ride them again soon as they are very challenging and the hardest trails that i have ever ridden on. They are 4 sections and some are harder than others. The first time i rode them i hated them, but my skills have improved more and i was able to ride them better.What is your opinion?Blogroll Me!Subscribe to my Posts... Blogroll Me!

This is very very simple to do.  I have seen places that sell cultures for you to use but like cheese making, you really only need something that will cause the milk to coagulate and plain old ordinary vinegar will do that. All you need when ever you need buttermilk for any recipe at all is plain older ordinary skim, 2% or regular milk and white or cider vinegar.  A couple of tablespoons in1 cup is all you need.  Just add the vinegar to the milk (don’t mix it) and let it sit until the milk is at room temperature and you have butter milk.

Buttermilk is one of the commonest things that we find in the kitchen. How many of us know that it has a cosmetic value? Buttermilk is not only a nourishing drink; it can also be used as deep-cleansing milk. It nourishes and softens the skin. It is excellent in the treatment of severe sunburn. For treating sunburn, prepare a lotion of 5 tablespoons of buttermilk and two tablespoons of tomato

Whew! What a week! I never thought Friday would get here. Tons of homework, papers due, and the thought of two of my classes being cancelled nearly gave me a heart attack! Alas, there was a light at the end of the tunnel; my "Food & Wine", "Martha Stewart", and "Perfect Cakes" by Nick Malgieri (cake guru) arrived. YEAH! It's also a three day weekend another, YEAH! I took my new book to my favorite chair and combed through the recipes. Buttermilk Cake? It was touted as being the perfect accompaniment to fruit. Hmm....lemon curd? Hmm....meringue? The result ...the cupcakes did have a slight tang, but they were really tender and moist. For the lemon curd, I have to admit I bought at Whole Foods. I know, I should have made it. The meringue as a frosting really made the cupcakes light and not overly sweet. The recipe is for two 9 inch round pans; I really only like to make 12 cupcakes at a time (so I halved it). I'll post the whole recipe, but just note that it can be easily h
