Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    No buttermilk in your refrigerator? No problem! Replace buttermilk by adding 1 tablespoon lemon juice or white vinegar to a measuring cup and filling with milk to the 1-cup line; let stand for 5 minutes.
  • tip 2
    Use leftover cornbread as a base for Savory Southern Shortcake. Top corn bread wedge with a saucy sauté of black-eyed peas and collard greens.
