About Buttermilk batter

Buttermilk Batter is a versatile mixture commonly used in American and Southern cuisines, ideal for coating fried chicken, fish, or vegetables, as well as pancakes and waffles. Its key ingredients include buttermilk, flour, eggs, and often a mix of seasonings like salt, pepper, or garlic powder, depending on the recipe. The buttermilk adds a tangy flavor and tenderness due to its slight acidity, which helps break down proteins during cooking. While it provides a rich taste and crisp texture, the batter can be high in carbohydrates and fats, particularly when fried, making moderation key for a balanced diet. On the healthy side, buttermilk is a source of calcium and probiotics, and the batter can be modified with whole-grain flour or baked methods to reduce calorie content.
