Many of my friends out there love to mess around in the kitchen. I do, and 90% of the time I'm a spur of the moment cook. Due to these usually unorganized attempts, I find that I come across the problem of missing ingredients frequently! I don't know about you, but I have a problem keeping those wacky little ingredients on hand - like fresh ginger, heavy whipping cream, lemons and buttermilk to name a few. I just don't use them enough to make them staple purchases for my cupboards. So a lot of recipes slip by because of some silly little ingredient I'm too lazy to trek into town for.
Well, I can mark one of those pesky little ingredients off my list!
Buttermilk!
The product result was the same as regular buttermilk as far as we could tell. I mean, the delicious pumpkin waffles we made with it were as yummy as can be.
This was an amazing find for me though - just in time for the holidays too! Todd promised me when he gets home from work he's going to dig all my recipe books out of the storage shed - can't wait to start picking out recipes! Hope you guys won't mind too much if I go on and on about food for a bit. I lost a lot a weight over the last couple of months and I'm trying to put it back on again before it starts snowing. LOL! Need to build up my winter coat!
Anyone else have any baking finds that they've stumbled across and found indispensible in the kitchen? I'd love to hear about them!
'til next time... ♥
I am such a sucker for waffles. Just looking at the photo made me want some!
ReplyDeleteWhat a neat find, especially since you like to tinker in the kitchen! I can't wait to see what recipes you end up making!
