    Thanks, Emeril! I just used this recipe to make my own ricotta cheese, and it turned out heavenly.

    For reviewers who expect this to be actual homemade buttermilk, maybe the title is a tad misleading. If you want a more real deal, churn heavy cream into butter and use the leftover liquid. This is a *substitute* buttermilk, darn handy when you don't have heavy cream on hand or don't feel like making butter. This way is cheaper, too, and works great in all sorts of cooking/baking applications. If you're looking to chug it down straight as a beverage, however, this isn't the recipe for you.

    This is a great recipe... if you do not have buttermilk available.

    I did not have buttermilk for a biscuit recipe, so I found this, and -- everything seems to have come out quite perfectly! Thank you, Emeril, for the wonderful recipe :
