Take care to stir the batter only until the flour mixture is moistened. The characteristic coarse ground feathery texture is ruined with over mixing.
To reheat in oven - spread with butter and heat for 10 minutes in moderate oven. Cut in wedges before toasting.
Sour milk = 2 tbsp lemon juice or vinegar in 1 cup milk.
1/3 cup = 5 tbsp - 1 tsp.
