Servings: 1 cup
Course: Dessert
Cuisine: American

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup milk just under a full cup
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

Method
 

  1. Start by adding the lemon juice to a 1-cup measuring cup. Top up with milk until the cup is full, leaving a slight gap at the top.
  2. Give the mixture a gentle stir to combine. Allow it to rest for about 5 minutes—this brief wait will cause the milk to curdle just a bit, creating a thickened, tangy consistency similar to traditional buttermilk.
