This is an authentic Buttermilk starter. Each pack contains loose powder mix, in perfect proportions, of the strains required to make the perfect Buttermilk.

Buttermilk is a fermented dairy drink. Traditionally, before being homogenized, milk was left to sit for a period of time to allow the cream and milk to separate. During this time, naturally occurring lactic acid bacteria in the milk fermented it, helping the separation and resulting in cultured milk and cultured cream. That cultured cream was then churned into butter and the buttermilk was the left over liquid.

Cultured buttermilk is a similar product to the traditional buttermilk. It is made using milk inoculated with lactic acid bacteria and is more viscous than traditional buttermilk. If left cultured for a longer period of time, cultured buttermilk will even get to the consistency of yogurt. Cultured buttermilk is full of probiotics which makes it super healthy for you.

Our Buttermilk starter makes genuine Buttermilk of exceptional quality with a traditional rich flavor and a fresh mild taste with just a slight tartness.

You can adjust the thickness of your buttermilk by controlling the time of incubation, making it anywhere from just a fermented alternative to milk to a thick, creamy and smooth yogurt-like buttermilk, thus making it ideal for drinking, eating, backing, cooking, etc. In addition, you can use our Buttermilk starter to make other cultured fermented products like cultured butter, sour cream, clubber milk, crème fraîche, whipped cream, and more.
