Buttermilk Marinade Leftover

[wilsonrabbit]

I recently used a bunch of buttermilk....oh 2 cups worth-ish to marinate some pork chops. It seemed like such a waste to dump it, but is it ok to reuse this buttermilk with some porky fluids including a bit of blood? I tried to do a search but came up empty. Aside from what the pork chops added, I did not add any seasonings, etc... to it. Obviously I would want to use it in something that requires cooking of the buttermilk. But will that suffice or will I poison everyone at breakfast with buttermilk pancakes and then at dinner with buttermilk biscuits? And would the addition of the pork fluids impart an odd taste? Thanks!

You could use it to make a buttermilk gravy to go with the chops. Then all you need is some biscuits.

I've reused buttermilk that was used to brine chicken, but I used it almost immediately after I took the chicken out, and I used it for another savoury application (onion rings). If you used it right away, I'd consider using it for biscuits or onion rings. I don't think it's really that big a deal.
