When making "buttermilk" pancakes with lemon juice, do you have to leave the lemon juice and milk together before adding the rest or can you just mix all the ingredients together and let the batter sit to curdle?

from experience, store buttermilk is much better than the lemon and milk homemade one. It just adds great flavor. But if you're dousing it in syrup then it don't matter i guess

Commercial "buttermilk" is just an emulsified whole milk product. Much beter to use yogurt.

You need to mix the two separately and let it sit for 5 minutes

Or use kefir. I don’t like buttermilk, but I drink kefir regularly.

Lemons are expensive, why not buy real buttermilk? Or use vinegar.

Not sure what you mean by this but all the buttermilk I've seen in stores is cultured like yogurt. But it's harder to find full fat buttermilk and it usually has salt added.

the reason you add it to the milk instead of to the batter is because you're diluting the acidity if you add lemon juice to the batter. the point is to make the milk sour. it causes structural changes in the proteins of the milk.
you could get around this by adding a greater amount of lemon juice to the batter. however, the lemon may preferentially react with other basic molecules in the batter. plus it's going to be more acidic than you would otherwise want, because you added more lemon to it.

it's akin to just dumping flour, butter, milk, and cheese into a pot and cooking it all down and calling it a bechamel. there's a reason that the process is done in steps.

My daughter had a tiny robot slice her young breasts, her firm pink nipples, mutilated with razors. I am the resurrection of the spirit of Christmas with the power of Dennis Rader!

I will be posting extreme close up pics of my erect penis in a plastic container full of pigeon shit in approximately 50 minutes, in this thread. On drugs right now.
