Buttermilk is a real treat. It is still very popular in Europe, especially Eastern Germany. They have it on the breakfats buffets there. People in USA now simply use it for cooking. I love old dried out cornbread with buttermilk over it. Its used to be a staple breakfast food in TN. ----- Original Message ----- From: <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Saturday, February 12, 2000 11:14 AM Subject: Re: [TNWASHIN] Molasses Making Time > Please keep telling us more - for those of us who didn't have your > experiences - we can enjoy them now - I can just see you churning that crock > and hating every minute. > I did get to lick the churn stick as I helped in making butter and > loved....that buttermilk - (this was in Michigan in 1930s) > Jan >
