Tomato,
Do you mean the original buttermilk that is a result of churning butter, or cultured buttermilk? If you mean cultured buttermilk, I can tell you how to make it. It is pretty easy, and I have been successful in making both cultured buttermilk and sour cream at my apartment. For buttermilk, one way you can get the bacteria is from the liquid yogurt they sell here. It is pretty cheap. You just mix a little bit of the liquid yogurt with more milk. Maybe like a 1:30 ratio or less, like 1:35, I don't know. If you wan specific numbers, use a tablespoon of the yogurt for 2 cups of milk. It's not real important. After that, you can warm the mixture a little to give the bacteria a good start growing, and then leave it in a warm place for 24 hours or so. Maybe behind your fridge if it is warm. At the end of the 24 hours you should have buttermilk. You can make sour cream the same way except use non-liquid (pudding consistency) yogurt and cream instead of liquid yogurt and milk. Probably a good idea to mix the yogurt in well to evenly distribute the bacteria. Good luck! Let me know how it turns out... |
Hey, thanks. I'm going to try making sour cream. Mmm sour cream.
I'd also be interested in limes, maybe, depending on the price. |

Good luck. Make sure you don't leave it out too long. You don't want it to spoil. If you don't want to hastle with making flour tortillas, I can have some sent to you.

Nah, I don't care about flour tortillas. I'm not using the sour cream for tortilla toppings. Just that in general, sour cream is a useful sort of thing -- you can use it for lots of things! |

| Do you use it for anything other than baking breads and other baked goods? I'd like some ideas. I have some sitting in my fridge from some banana nut bread I used, and I don't want to bake more bread anytime soon. |

Good for baking stuff for sure, but also good for sauces and dips, you can eat it with homemade pierogies, use it to add to soups or to garnish them and make them look good, you can eat some with baked potatoes, etc.
And now I'm hungry.
Anyway, I just thought of something else that would be awesome if it could be found and were at a reasonable price. Is labneh available here? Oh! And zataar! So good... |

Mastadon,
What do you consider a reasonable price for limes?
What kind of sweet peas do you mean?
You mean the olive green colored ball shaped peas sometimes called English peas?
|
I guess 500Won or less per lime would be alright.
Sweet peas are also sometimes called baby peas. They're small and mushy. Basically I want something other than the rock hard peas that I've found here, even at the international grocery stores. Even normal peas from the States would be alright, but I've tried cooking the peas from here for 40 minutes and they're still inedible. |

Where do you get the sour cream?
I noticed that KFC and Mc Donalds both have items on their menus that use tortilla shells, but I can't find the tortilla shells in any stores outside of Seoul?
I am wondering about this. |

One thing I miss from Scotland; is black pudding.
I believe there is an import ban, because it contains pigs blood.
They also make rubbish, hard sausages here. |
