What is Creme Fraiche and can I make it myself?
A – Creme Fraiche is a very rich cream with a slightly sour flavour. To make your own, combine and heat equal quantities of cream and buttermilk or yoghurt very gently until just lukewarm. Pour into a jar, seal, and stand at room temperature 12-24 hours until thickened. Refrigerate until required. Alternatively Creme Fraiche can be purchased at the supermarket. Failing this substitute Creme Fraiche with Light Sour Cream.
