MAKE YOUR OWN BUTTERMILK

Well all but one tomato plant remains in the tomato patch---it's been a productive summer---and as always, your editor has harvested a bounty of green tomatoes end of season--some may ripen----most won't.  

Fortunately, we're alright with that because....we love FRIED GREEN TOMATOES--FROM THE HILLBILLY KITCHEN---SEE THE RECIPE HERE

Now this recipe calls for BUTTERMILK, a common staple in downhome kitchens---but a bit hard to find on occasion in these parts.  

"THIS OLD GAL" TO THE RESCUE---YOU CAN MAKE YOUR OWN!  I may never buy it again.  GO TO Make Your Own Buttermilk Substitution - This Old Gal
