Old butter milk for making cornbread.
Comments (8)Flour and sugar are just fine in cornbread, for those who like it that way. I can't see any advantage in "aging" buttermilk. What it appears they're trying to do is emulate the bits of butter which appear in real buttermilk left from churning. But that's entirely different from a curdled commercial product.

Comments (11)I wanted to make coconut ice cream today and found this recipe here, but I did not follow it exactly. Instead I used 1 can (18 oz) coconut cream 1-1/2 cups heavy cream 1/2 cup coconut milk 2/3 cup sugar 2 tbsp Amaretto I had considered making a custard, since I was using some coconut milk (which is very thin and freezes solid), but I thought the Amaretto would soften it sufficiently. I bought the coconut cream (Savoy brand) at a Thai market, and it was larger than I expected - more than two cups. I have no idea how this will turn out, but I will adjust the recipe next time if I do not love it. Kevin does not like coconut (except in curry, and I do not like coconut in curry), and so it is best for me to make something frozen if I use coconut. Coconut ice cream is one of my all time favorites, and it reminds me of being on the beach in Mexico, where the ice cream is made from fresh coconuts. I was inspired to make this ice cream because I bought some coconut milk eggnog and like that as much as I do regular eggnog. I'm also thinking of buying some eggnog that I like and putting it directly into the ice cream maker. Low temps lately have been in the mid to upper 50s, and so it hasn't been all that cold here, although it's supposed to dip down to 45° Christmas morning, which is about as cold as it gets here. This week-end it is not supposed to get above 60°, which is pretty rare, but I will be eating ice cream anyway....See MoreCoconut Cream in lieu of milk/yogurt in quickbreads?
Comments (5)It would not be an exact substitute in terms of proportions for milk, as it is much thicker than milk. You could substitute if for cream in certain recipes, but if you substitute if for milk, you might need to add some water. In quick breads, it would not be a substitute for yogurt if the recipes uses baking soda, as the baking soda has to react with the acid in the yogurt, and that would be missing in the coconut cream. You could use baking powder instead of baking soda, but you would have to increase the amount, or you could add something acidic, such as lemon juice. Coconut cream will add a strong coconut flavor, but I'm sure you're aware of that already. I use it mainly to make coconut ice cream....See MoreBest baseboard/trim color with coconut milk walls
Comments (1)Not a fan of accent walls, unless there is somthing special about it. I would paint the walls milk chocolate and the trim and baseboard coconut milk in semi-gloss finish....See Morecentralcacyclist
