Comments

I love buttermilk and when combined in a dressing it becomes quite decadent.  It is easy to create yourself by adding 1 tablespoon of vinegar or lemon juice to 1 cup of milk or cream.  Let sit at room temperature for 30 minutes and use as desired!
This will be a great topping for  baked potatoes

Thanks to WAIRUNA ORGANICS – collard greens and carrots, to BRYDONE GROWERS –cabbage, and JANEFIELD PEONIES and HYDROPONICS – baby red onions  for providing the ingredients  used in the demonstration at the market
