- Buttermilk's flavour is similar to lowfat sour cream. Add in your favourite spices for salad dressing - or possibly fruit and honey for a refreshing drink.
- 1. Peel cucumber. Cut in half lengthwise. Scrape out and throw away seeds.
- Grate coarsely into small bowl. Stir in salt, sugar and vinegar. Let stand at least 10 min. Drain well. Throw away liquid. In a jar with a tight-fitting lid, combine buttermilk, yogurt, lemon juice, dill, green onion, parsley, garlic, pepper and liquid removed cucumber. Shake well to combine. Chill. If refrigerated, this salad dressing will keep for 3 days.
