*Creme Fraiche - The French Creme Fraiche and has the flavor of a buttery rich and slightly tart sour cream. To make your own, place 1 cup whipping cream in a small saucepan on low and heat just until it is barely warmed. Do not overheat or your creme fraiche won't thicken. Transfer the cream to a glass container and add two tablespoons buttermilk. Cover and let stand at room temperature (about 70°F) from 8 to 24 hours, or until very thick. Stir well before covering and refrigerate up to 10 days
