Cooking Tips

• If you don't have buttermilk, you can make it by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of milk and letting it sit for 5 minutes.
• Adjust the spice levels according to your preference by adding more or less cumin powder, black salt, and chaat masala.
• For an extra kick of heat, you can add a pinch of red chili powder or finely chopped green chilies.
• To make it more filling, you can add a few ice cubes and blend it for a thicker consistency.

Storage and Serving

• Spicy Buttermilk is best served fresh and chilled.
• If you have any leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
• Before serving the leftover buttermilk, give it a good stir or blend it again to regain its frothy texture.
