Hi Steve
A very simple subsitute for Buttermilk Which I use all the time is:
Put 1 tablespoon of vinegar (I normally use white) or lemon juice in a
cup. Fill with milk. DO NOT STIR. After 5 minutes the milk will be sour
which is a good substitute for Buttermilk.
I use this for all sorts of recipies that call for Buttermilk. Scones,
cakes ect.

PS Most Supermarkets in NZ stock Buttermilk but it is expensive
About $3 per litre.
