FREEZING EXTRA BUTTERMILK
OUT OF BUTTERMILK FOR BISCUITS """ How many times have you tried a recipe that calls for 1 cup of buttermilk but they only sell it in quarts" Usually (at my house anyway) the unused/extra buttermilk sits (forgotten) in the back of the fridge until its "use by" date has expired, but that is now a thing of the past. Since I discovered how well buttermilk freezes, I always have it in the house.
The only trick is to freeze it in small containers so that it thaws quickly. The smallest container I tried was my ice cube tray. After they are frozen, just put them in a freezer bag and carefully mark what's in the bag:
Ice cube trays are not a standard size. I have one that measures 2 tablespoons per cube and one that measures 1½ tablespoons per cube, so keep that in mind when you are thawing out the cubes (I usually just thaw a couple extra to be on the safe side).
As a general rule:
8 frozen 2 oz. cubes = 1 cup buttermilk6 frozen 2 oz. cubes = 3/4 cup buttermilk4 frozen 2 oz. cubes = 1/2 cup buttermilk2 frozen 2 oz. cubes = 1/4 cup buttermilk6 frozen 2 oz. cubes = 3/4 cup buttermilk?
You can thaw the buttermilk cubes overnight in the fridge, or if you need them sooner than that, you can microwave them for just a few seconds. DON'T FREAK OUT TIP:Sometimes, the thawed out buttermilk looks like it's separated (not pretty), ...
