CREME FRAICHE

This is very much like sour cream yet it is softer and has a little more tang. Use it to garnish anything from pies to soup. Try whipping it with a little bit of sugar for tangy whipped cream!

Don't worry about the creme fraiche spoiling while it's sitting on the counter; the acid in the mixture prevents bacterial disease associated with dairy products.

MAKE-AT-HOME CREME FRAICHE

Creme Fraiche is a thick and tangy French cream which is like a smoother and richer sour cream. If using in a recipe, it would be best to prepare the day before as it has to be allowed to sit at room temperature about 8 hours, then chilled before use. I found this very easy recipe in Cuisine at Home.

Categories     condiments, project

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 2

1 cup heavy cream, at room temperature
2 tablespoons buttermilk or Solait crème fraîche starter

Steps:

  • Combine the heavy cream with the buttermilk or crème fraîche starter. Pour into a clean, warmed thermos or glass jar. Cover tightly and keep in a warm place for 6 to 8 hours. If using crème fraîche starter, keep covered for 24 hours. When the mixture has jelled and is almost firm, refrigerate. It will solidify further in the refrigerator.
  • This amount, if made with Solait crème fraîche starter, will keep for a month in the refrigerator. If made with buttermilk it will keep for 10 days.
  • To make more crème fraîche, use 2 tablespoons from the last batch and add it to a cup of cream. You can continue making more this way. After six months or so, a slightly fermented taste may develop, in which case it is time to start a new batch.
