For those of you that don't like buttermilk, but want to put it into a recipe like pancakes, you can freeze buttermilk in little baggies in the amount you need for the recipe. I'm not a fan of buttermilk either, but some recipes are just way better with it. I know that you can make buttermilk with lemon/vinegar and milk, but it just isn't the same. So I freeze my buttermilk and have it on hand whenever I need it.
