2-Ingredient Crème Fraîche 🥄

[Ui Ui]

Looking for an easy way to make crème fraîche at home? This simple recipe requires just two ingredients and is foolproof, perfect for adding a creamy, tangy touch to your dishes.

Ingredients:

• 1 cup heavy cream or whipping cream
• 1 tablespoon fresh buttermilk or crème fraîche

Equipment:

• 1 sterilized glass jar
• 1 sterilized metal spoon

Directions:

• Mix the cream and buttermilk in the jar.
• Cover and let it sit in a warm place (like on top of the fridge) for 12–24 hours. This allows the buttermilk cultures to thicken the cream.
• Shake or stir the mixture 2–3 times while it sits to prevent a hard layer from forming.
• After 12–24 hours, the mixture should be thicker and smell slightly sour. Stir it well and chill in the fridge for about 2 hours. It will thicken more as it cools.

Enjoy your homemade crème fraîche! ​
