Test Kitchen Tips
  • Go for freshly squeezed lemon juice when preparing this summery dressing. Bottled lemon juice, which is from concentrate, won’t provide the same bright, fresh flavor.
  • Instead of buying buttermilk, you can place 1 tablespoon of white vinegar or lemon juice in a liquid measuring cup and add enough milk to measure 1 cup. Stir, then let stand for 5 minutes. Or you can substitute 1 cup of plain yogurt for the buttermilk.
