How To Make sour cream creme fraiche

  • Step 1
    Whisk sour cream and heavy cream together in a medium size non-reactive bowl.
  • Step 2
    Transfer mixture to a non-reactive container and cover. I use a mason jar. Let sit out in a warm spot away from direct sunlight for 12 hours.
  • Step 3
    After 12 hours, stir the mixture with a wooden spoon. Refrigerate for an additional 24 hours. Will keep for up to two weeks in the fridge.
