Buttermilk milkLow

Buttermilk, known as 'chaas' or 'chhaach' in Hindi, is a traditional fermented dairy beverage widely consumed in India. It is prepared by churning whole milk or yogurt, resulting in a low-fat, slightly sour liquid drink popular for hydration and digestion support.

• It is typically consumed plain or flavored with spices such as cumin and salt.
• Nutritionally, buttermilk is lower in fat than whole milk but retains moderate protein and carbohydrate content primarily as natural milk sugars (lactose).
• It contains vitamins such as vitamin A, small amounts of vitamin D, and vitamin B12, and minerals including calcium, potassium, and sodium.
• Suitable for vegetarian diets, it is a liquid dairy product commonly used in meals or as a snack beverage.

Buttermilk is valued for its refreshing taste and light texture, making it a common homemade or commercially prepared drink in Indian households.
