Ingredients
- 1 cup (8 fl oz / 240 ml) heavy whipping cream (36% fat content works best)
- 2 teaspoons lemon juice (or white vinegar)
- ¼ cup (2 fl oz / 60 ml) whole milk
Notes
- Because there are no thickeners or gelling agents, your homemade sour cream may be thinner than commercial brands you may be used to. Have no fear, it’s fine. I’ve gotten used to the consistency and like it better since it blends in recipes so well.
- Quick sour cream: add 2 tablespoons of good quality (live/organic if possible) yogurt to 8oz of softly whipped fresh cream - allow to stand at room temperature for about 30 minutes - depending on the room. This can be refrigerated then where it will further culture for a lovely sour cream!
- Vegan sour cream: strain plant-based yogurt through a fine sterile muslin type cloth, in a sieve, over a bowl in the fridge to get a thick Greek Style yogurt. Enrich this with coconut cream if you wish. This takes about 4 hours, or overnight.
