DIY Creme Fraiche

Did you know you can make your own creme fraiche? It's supposedly not as good as store bought ones, but good enough when there's none around and you're in a pinch for some! And so I found a recipe for it that uses a bit unflavored yogurt mixed into some heavy cream. Wait about 24 hours at room temperature and voila! You got some of the good stuff. I most enjoy it as a dollop into my yogurt to add creaminess and to cut the sourness of the yogurt. It reminded me very much of some of the yogurt I had in London. Yum! It made for a richer and creamier mouth feel. You must try it! As a side note, I bought some "real" creme fraiche" and wow, what a difference compared to the homemade stuff. It's super thick and when I added my usual dollop into the yogurt, it became overwhelming. Well, I must experiment more with the two versions.
