Please do not mix milk with vinegar.
There are some culinary substitutions that don’t greatly affect the final result of whatever it is you’re whipping up. Buttermilk, unfortunately, isn’t one of them. This is for two reasons, according to food editor Shilpa Uskokovic:
First, the consistency of many DIY buttermilk substitutes is thinner than the real deal. This usually means a higher water content, which will change the texture of your baked goods: “It’s likely going to make it more gummy and more dense,” says Shilpa. The second and perhaps most important factor has to do with the type of acid itself. The lactic acid in cultured buttermilk is “very mild, round, and buttery,” says Shilpa. When you use vinegar instead , you’re getting acetic acid instead. Shilpa finds the flavor “very sharp and harsh,” compared to the mellow tang found in buttermilk. While the baking soda in your baked goods will react with both types of acid, the flavor simply won’t be the same.
