Buttermilk Syrup
Description
Buttermilk Syrup combines buttermilk with packed brown sugar, granulated sugar, and salted butter in a heavy saucepan. The mixture is brought to a boil over medium heat, melding the sugars and butter into the tangy buttermilk base. After boiling, it is removed from heat and baking soda and vanilla extract are whisked in, causing the syrup to bubble and foam significantly.
The baking soda reacts to lighten the syrup's texture, giving it a creamy froth with subtle tang balanced by the rich sweetness of brown sugar and caramel notes from the butter. The pinch of salt rounds out the flavors. The syrup is served warm, making it a flavorful alternative topping suited especially for breakfast items like pancakes and waffles.
