Can anyone help me as to where I can buy this from please? I have looked in the 3 supermarkets in my area and cant find any, the health shop has 500gm bags but it is far too expensive there. I will pay if someone could get me some and send it thru to me. TIA and have a nice day:-)

angelstarr, you can get buttermilk (i.e. not powder) from supermarkets, with the milk, cream etc.

"Buttermilk" is the liquid leftover from making butter (as the name implies) - this liquid is then cultured and the result is "buttermilk".
It is slightly thicker than milk but not as heavy as cream.
You add some Lacto baccillus culture and let it ferment for 12 to 14 hours at low temperature.

I use the Tararua one regularly - for dressings, pancakes, baking etc. If I don't have it I simply add some vinegar to regular milk and let it stand until it thickens. I'm not sure if the ones available to us are especially authentic as in Germany we would buy it and it was smooth and creamy and very low cal by comparison....it almost poured like silky cream.
