Buttermilk sauce is a creamy, tangy condiment typically made from buttermilk, mayonnaise, and a blend of seasonings such as garlic, onion, dill, and black pepper. Its origin is rooted in Southern and American cuisine, where buttermilk has long been a staple ingredient due to its rich, slightly acidic flavor profile. Often used as a dressing for salads, a dip for vegetables, or a topping for roasted dishes, buttermilk sauce pairs well with both savory and fresh ingredients. Nutritionally, it provides calcium and probiotics from the buttermilk, which can support gut health. However, it can be high in saturated fats and calories due to the mayonnaise base, so portion control is important for those monitoring their fat intake. Lighter versions can be made by substituting low-fat or Greek yogurt for mayonnaise, making it a healthier option without losing its characteristic tangy flavor.
