Creme fraiche cheese

Crème fraiche in French for “fresh cream”. It is thick and rich, so it is often used like sour cream. Creme Fraiche is a cultured cream product with a nutty, tangy, slightly sour flavor and a fat content of around 30 percent.

Crème fraîche tastes pleasantly fresh and sour. Its consistency is between that of sour cream and double cream. It is a version of sour cream with a higher fat content, which makes it good for cooking.

Compared to sour cream it has a lower water content and a higher fat content. Because of its high fat content, creme fraiche does not curdle when boiled, which makes it ideal to use as a thickener in sauces and soups. Creme fraiche is used as a condiment or thickener in many appetizers, dinners, and desserts. It provides a delicious topping for soups, main dishes and especially desserts.

In France, creme fraiche is made with unpasteurized heavy cream that already has the necessary healthy bacteria to thicken.
