Golden Vanilla Buttermilk Syrup

Ingredients

  • 2 cups butter
  • 2 cups sugar
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 2 teaspoons baking soda
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla

Method

  1. In a large pot, combine the butter, sugar, and buttermilk, since it expands quite a bit.
  2. Bring to a low boil until it starts to foam up.
  3. Turn off the heat, then add the baking soda and vanilla and stir them in while it’s still very hot.

Moxhaven tip

Use a large pot. The syrup foams and expands when the baking soda goes in.

Letters from the porch

Pull up a chair.

Every so often I’ll write you a letter. A recipe, a tradition we’re trying, whatever magic (or glorious mess) happened at our table that week. No lectures, nothing salesy, just a friend waving from the porch.
