Vermont Creamery, Crème Fraîche, 8 oz

Vermont Creamery crème fraîche is an exquisitely rich cultured cows’ cream with a thick, creamy texture and a tart, slightly nutty flavor. Incredibly versatile, crème fraîche can be used as a base for dips and sauces, as an ingredient in baking, or as a simple topping for pies and soups. Unlike other cream-based products, crème fraîche will not curdle over high heat or separate when mixed with wine or vinegar; it retains a rich, smooth texture and adds depth of flavor. It can also be whipped and sweetened for desserts. One of the simplest ways to use crème fraîche is as an enhancement to any recipe that calls for sour cream. The rich taste and unique cooking properties of crème fraîche will bring fullness of flavor and a smooth texture to dips, baked goods, soups, and finishing sauces. From savory potatoes gratin to decadent brownies, crème fraîche is the defining ingredient that elevates many recipes from ordinary to extraordinary.
