I have some and have not used it. My guess is that if you are using it in a recipe it will work just fine. I have been meaning to try it in biscuits.

I guess I think of a dry brine as being salt. So, no, I'd not use buttermilk powder as a dry brine.
But I sure can see using buttermilk powder as a rub or seasoning ingredient. Some people like to use Ranch seasoning packets as the basis for a chicken seasoning, and buttermilk plays a big role in this type of flavoring.
Here's a short article talking about other ways to use buttermilk powder besides biscuits and bread -- https://www.thekitchn.com/buttermilk...-uses-23048264 A short quote --
"...Buttermilk grilled chicken is one of my family’s favorite meals, and with buttermilk powder I can replicate the taste in half the time. You can also combine buttermilk powder with garlic and onion powders for a simple rub for grilled or roasted chicken, pork, or eggplant...."

Like Backroadmeats , we use buttermilk powder as a binder in sausage where we want to add mild acidity (tang). We also reconstitute it for marinades particularly for fish. Have never used in as a dry brine though.
Fun fact (AKA useless information) that I picked up somewhere in my culinary travels: Grocery store buttermilk has nothing to do with the manufacture of butter, it is a product made by adding a lactic acid bacteria culture to ferment milk (usually low or no fat). Hence it will be labeled "cultured buttermilk". Maybe if you want historically accurate buttermilk, you have to churn your own butter.Last edited by johnec00; March 17, 2021, 03:09 PM.
