Homemade Creme Fraiche
Consume it savory as a thick sour cream or sweet with some maple syrup. Either way Creme Fraiche is a staple you want to have in your kitchen at all times. Our favorite way to use this thickened cultured cream is by adding a bit of lemon zest and maple syrup to it and blending it to make it fluffy. Add it to fresh berries and angel food cake for a light summer dessert. Learn more cultured dairy recipes in the Greenhouse.
