Ingredients:

  • 1 cup (240 ml) heavy cream (preferably organic)
  • 2 tablespoons buttermilk or plain yogurt

Instructions:

  1. In a medium bowl, combine 1 cup of heavy cream and 2 tablespoons of buttermilk or yogurt.
  2. Whisk gently until fully mixed.
  3. Pour the mixture into a clean glass jar and cover it loosely with a clean cloth.
  4. Place the jar in a warm, draft-free spot for 24 hours to ferment.
  5. After 24 hours, stir the crème fraîche and check for thickness; it should have thickened slightly and have a tangy aroma.
  6. Secure the lid and store in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.
