Cultured buttermilk is milk, usually skim or low-fat, soured with a mesophilic culture at room temperature until it thickens. Dairies make it in place of the liquid left from churning butter from soured cream, which goes off quickly. The result is a thick, tangy drink and baking ingredient. Made in 5 steps over 3.8 days. The longest step, store cold, takes up to 3 days (FOODSAFE BC with the BC Ministry of Health 2022) and runs at up to 4 °C (FOODSAFE BC with the BC Ministry of Health 2022). Salt is 0.3 % (FOODSAFE BC with the BC Ministry of Health 2022). Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis and subsp. cremoris and Lactococcus lactis biovar diacetylactis and Leuconostoc mesenteroides subsp. cremoris do most of the fermenting.

What makes this one different
Cultured buttermilk is not the liquid left from churning. It is fresh milk soured on purpose with a mesophilic culture, sometimes with butter granules added to look like the old product. Traditional buttermilk is the by-product of churning butter from soured cream; it has about 0.5 % fat and a short shelf life.
Directly acidified buttermilkSkim milk is brought to pH 5.2 with lactic acid before culturing, or acidified with no culture. Shorter to make and more even; a consumer panel could not tell it from cultured.
Buttermilk with butter granulesFlakes or granules of butterfat are added so it looks like churned buttermilk. With these, or with an aroma culture, salt or citrate, US rules allow the name "cultured buttermilk".
Safety
In the US the milk must be pasteurised before culturing, and cultured milk needs a titratable acidity of at least 0.5 % (21 CFR 131.112). BC food-safety guidance discards a batch that has not reached pH 4.6 two hours past the expected time, cools it to 4 °C within 6 hours and keeps it at 4 °C or colder.
Hazards the sources name: Spore-forming bacteria from the milk, if cooling to the culture temperature is slow.
Dairies began making "fermented buttermilk" from skim or low-fat milk to avoid the off-flavours and short shelf life of churned buttermilk (Tetra Pak).
