Chef's Notes
Treat your buttermilk with absolute reverence; its acidity is the secret weapon that unlocks the fluffy magic of these spongy idlis.
Pro Tip
Never skip the resting period after mixing the cooking soda, as this crucial window allows the bubbles to trap themselves securely for maximum fluffiness.
Kitchen Catastrophe Warning
If you use sweet fresh buttermilk instead of sour, your idlis will turn out as flat, dense, and depressing as a discarded kitchen sponge.

The Culinary Science
Lactic acid in the sour buttermilk reacts chemically with the sodium bicarbonate in the cooking soda, releasing carbon dioxide gas to naturally aerate the batter.
