Recipe Notes

Southern buttermilk is very easy to make but you must be very fast while making it. Make sure buttermilk and cutter are very cold. Ensure you fold your dough several times to give you the biscuits layers and use a little flour as possible when you're folding the dough.

Buttermilk substitute: Add a tablespoon of lemon juice or white vinegar then top it with milk to make one cup. Let it side for about 5 minutes, your buttermilk is ready.
