Prep Time: 5 minutes
RecipeTips.com

Ingredients
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 2 tablespoons plain yogurt or buttermilk 
 
Crème fraiche, heavy cream thickened and slightly soured by a bacterial culture, has a nutty,
tangy taste and is a delicious addition to many dishes. This do-it-yourself version isn't quite
authentic, but it's still very good. It is very easy to make - just be sure to choose an additive
with a live bacterial culture
 
Directions
  • Warm the cream a little--not over 100° F. Stir in the culture-providing additive. Keep
    the cream at warm room temperature until it thickens (over night or up to 2 days). It will keep
    for several weeks, covered and refrigerated.
