Buttermilk refers to some dairy drink recipes. Originally, buttermilk was the liquid that was left over after butter was churned out of cream. The term buttermilk is also used to refer to a range of fermented milk drink recipes that are popular and common in warmer climates. In places like the Balkans, Turkey, the Middle East, Afghanistan, Pakistan, India, Nepal, Sri Lanka, Nicaragua and the Southern United States where unrefrigerated fresh milk is known to sour quickly. Buttermilk is also popular in colder climates, such as Scandinavia, the Netherlands, Ireland, Germany, Poland, Slovakia, Slovenia, Croatia and the Czech Republic. This fermented type of dairy product known as cultured buttermilk is produced from cow's milk and has a sour taste that is caused by lactic acid bacteria. The tartness found in buttermilk is due to acid that is in the milk. The increased acidity is due mostly to lactic acid that is produced by lactic acid bacteria while fermenting lactose, the primary sugar in milk. While both cultured and traditional buttermilk contains lactic acid, traditional buttermilk tends to be less viscous, whereas cultured buttermilk is more viscous. Buttermilk can be drunk as is, and it can also be used in recipes. Soda bread is bread in which the acid in buttermilk reacts with the rising agent of sodium bicarbonate, to produce carbon dioxide which acts as the leavening agent.
