Warm Up the Holiday Season With Organic Gingerbread

What is the secret ingredient in tasty pastries, muffins and other baked goods? Buttermilk, which adds a rich, satisfying quality with fewer calories than dairy or cream.

Organic buttermilk, produced without needing pesticides, synthetic hormones or antibiotics, isn’t only wonderful for cooking, it is great as a base for sauces and salad dressings or as a marinade. Additionally, it is usually used to coat poultry and fish before frying or baking.

Many appreciate drinking this flexible dairy solution by itself; it pairs effectively with sweet fruits and desserts.
