Buttermilk is a fermented milk product similar in consistency to thick yogurt. Buttermilk can be found in the store in powder form, which must be diluted with water to make a sauce. It is better to use mayonnaise with a neutral taste. Instead of fresh herbs, you can use dried herbs, but in the first option the sauce will be more tender and more aromatic.
