So I planned on potato soup tonight, but after arriving home discovered I only have buttermilk and sour cream for dairy. I've seem recipes featuring buttermilk but they also include regular milk. Is there any way to make this work ? I also have homemade chicken stock.

What are you trying to accomplish with the dairy? 

 

I did a chicken and potato soup the other night using homemade chicken stock and made a flour slurry to thicken it. If you have an immersion blender you could throw in extra potatoes and blend them up too. 

 

Martha Stewart's recipe just puts boiled potatoes in a bowl and pours over buttermilk like it's cereal. 

 

My theory is that it's soup, just throw whatever sounds good in it until it tastes good.
