Recipe 1-cup dry powder milk 3-cups water shake well leave out until it turns to buttermilk. Don't leave out overlong are it will have lots of whey If you want little thicker replace 1 cup or 1/2 cup water with store bought buttermilk and after that when your quart jar gets down to bout 1/2 or 3/4 cup add 1 cup powder and enough water to fill. Its kinda like starter dough but it works. and the powder milk the gov gives away works better and is thicker. I'm one of them feel look smell dump pinch cooks, not good on times or measurements.
