Buttermilk Soup, also known as 'karnemelksche Pap' is a traditional Dutch dish that has been enjoyed for generations. It's a hearty soup that's perfect for a cold winter day, or any time you're in the mood for something warm and comforting. The soup is made with tangy buttermilk and a little bit of flour to thicken it up, and can be sweetened with sugar or molasses to taste. It's a great way to use up leftover buttermilk that might otherwise go to waste, and can be served as a main dish or a side dish with bread or crackers.

2.	Combine flour and 1/4 cup water in a small bowl, stirring until smooth.
3.	Slowly whisk the flour mixture into the boiling buttermilk, stirring constantly to prevent lumps.
4.	Reduce heat and simmer for 5-10 minutes, stirring frequently, until the soup thickens.
5.	To serve, sweeten with sugar or molasses to taste, and garnish with fresh herbs if desired.
