Trader Joe’s Rants & Raves (mostly raves, a few rants)

Simply put you might think of Creme Fraiche as the more refined (French cousin) of American Sour Cream. Both are made by culturing cream and are thick and tangy and let’s face it, very tasty! But Creme Fraiche has a higher fat content so its a bit richer plus it can stand heating/cooking without breaking where as sour cream might separate. Naturally it costs more. It can be used in most ways you might use sour cream.

For one idea; you can make a nice topping with it. Mix in some sugar and a touch of vanilla into Creme Fraiche, then use this wonderful topping with most any fruit, baked good, desserts or what have you.
