1. 1酪乳(烘焙常用;不是牛奶加奶油。早期是打完奶油剩下的液體,店裡賣的多半是發酵、帶酸味的那種)

    Buttermilk names two related liquids, and that is the messy truth. Originally it was the thin, slightly sour liquid left in the churn after the butter had been taken out — a farm word going back to Middle English butter-melke, simply butter + milk. In shops and recipes today, especially for , soda bread, and fried chicken, buttermilk is usually milk that has been so it tastes and a little thick. Bakers want that acid: it helps cakes rise with bicarbonate of soda. It behaves like the old leftover, but most are not, in fact, what remains after butter-making. It is not milk with butter stirred in, and it is not sweet drinking milk. English uses it without fuss; the old farm sense still turns up in older writing.

組成Inherited from Middle English butter-melke, equivalent to butter + milk. Nearby languages built the same compound in their own words.
