I have a lot of recipes that use creme fraiche as an ingredient, but it's sometimes not that easy to get hold of here in the Uk. I found this on the web and thought I'd share it.

    I have never EVER been able to find creme fraiche where I live so I've been forced to skip the recipes that call for it or substitute sour cream. Now I know what it tastes like...nothing like sour cream. This is so simple to make I'll be making it often. The taste is wonderful. Thank you, Sylvie!

    This is wonderful. Works with yogurt too. In Mexico it's called Creama Mexicana. It doesn't break in a sauce like sour cream. On strawberries it's incredible and it beats like whipping cream too. Thanks for sharing!!!! Tony
