Add to Shopping List
Instructions
- In an extremely clean glass container, add in buttermilk and heavy cream.
- Cover with plastic wrap or lid, and let thicken at room temperature for 12-48 hours.
- Store creme fraiche in refrigerator for up to 10 days.
Notes
- You cannot freeze creme fraiche.
- Stirring while checking on the thickening of the creme fraiche is okay, I've done it without an issue. Stir away!
- Putting it in the fridge will stop the fermentation process. If you want it to be thicker, keep it out until desired thickness.
