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
