Thank you for this recipe! I love not having to use the store-bought mixes with additives in them. I used The Saco Pantry cultured Buttermilk blend. That’s all my store had. It says to refrigerate it after opening. So will I need to refrigerate the mix, or do you think the salt will preserve it?
Since what you used is cultured, I think it would be best to keep it refrigerated.
