Conversions & Substitutions--Dairy Products

Dairy Product Substitutions
Dairy products are very easily substituted if you are missing a partiular dairy ingredient. Now the list below is substituting dairy products with another kind of dairy product. I'm not including dairy-free substitutions in this particular post.

Ingredient ~ Substitute
1 cup whole milk ~ 1/2 cup evaporated milk + 1/2 cup water, or 1 cup nonfat milk or reconstituted nonfat dry milk + 2 tsp butter or oil

1 cup buttermilk or sour milk ~ 1 Tbsp cider vinegar or lemon juice + enough milk to equal 1 cup; let stand 5 minutes

1 cup dairy sour cream ~ 1 cup plain yogurt, or 1 cup evaporated milk + 1 Tbsp vinegar, or 1 cup cottage cheese mixed in a blender with 2 Tbsp milk and 1 Tbsp lemon juice

1 cup half-and-half ~ 7/8 cup milk + 3 Tbsp margarine or butter, or 1 cup evaporated milk

1 cup plain yogurt ~ 1 cup sour milk, or 1 cup buttermilk
