Yield Makes about 2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 liquid cups heavy cream, preferably not ultrapasteurized* (16 ounces = 464 grams)
2 tablespoons buttermilk (approximately 1 ounce = 30 grams)
optional: 1 Tahitian vanilla bean,** split lengthwise
*Ultrapasteurized cream may take as long as 36 hours to thicken and will not have as full a flavor.
**Or use 2 regular (Madagascar) vanilla beans.

Steps:

  • Combine the ingredients in a jar with a tight-fitting lid and place it in a warm spot, such as the top of the refrigerator or near the stove. Allow it to sit undisturbed for at least 12 hours or until thickened but still pourable.
  • Refrigerate. Crème fraîche will continue to thicken on chilling.
  • If using the vanilla bean, remove it just before using the crème fraîche and scrape the seeds from the bean into the cream.
  • To Make Lightly Sweetened Whipped Crème Fraîche:
  • Add 1 tablespoon of sugar and whisk the cream lightly until soft peaks form when the whisk is raised.
  • STORE
  • Refrigerated, up to 3 weeks.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my crème fraîche didn't turn out. It was too runny.
