Description
r Make your own probiotic, cultured Buttermilk with our starter culture. This heirloom variety is reusable- by reserving some back from each batch (called backslopping), you’ll have the starter for your next batch. You can share with friends as well as continue making Buttermilk! The sour flavor in Buttermilk comes from the lactic acid that is produced by the fermentation of the lactose in the milk. This action is carried out by the beneficial bacteria lactococcus lactis and/or lactobacillus bulgaricus.
r
r Buttermilk contains less fat and calories than whole milk. It also contains vitamins, calcium, and phosphorus. The lactic acid produced by the beneficial bacteria help it to be more easily digestible, making it a better dairy option for those that are lactose intolerant.

r NW Ferments provides quality starter cultures for home production. Our goal is to enable people to improve their own health while saving them money. By making our own healthy foods, we help ourselves as well as our planet. While we are from the Pacific NW, we know that we have many kindred spirits worldwide.
r
r You can do more with this tangy, delicious beverage than just drink it. Use it in your baking recipe to add flavor and moistness. Make your own sauces and dressings- real Buttermilk ranch is always a crowd pleaser. The lactic acid in Buttermilk makes it a great ingredient in marinades for meat. It acts as a tenderizer, as well as tames any unwanted “gamey” flavor in lamb or game meats.
r
r The process is very easy- the directions are the same as for our Mesophilic yogurts. The starter culture is mixed into milk in a jar, covered with a breathable lid, and allowed to culture for 12 to 48 hours (subsequent batches will culture faster). Ideal temperature is 70 to 78 degrees. Once set, it is refrigerated until ready to use. Always remember to save back at least 1/4 cup for your next batch!
