Sour Cream - Homemade Sour Cream - How to make Sour Cream at Home

Sour cream (Creme Fraiche) is just so delicious, creamy, sour, fresh – a must-have in the summer as a dip, topping for a fried potato, or just simply as a bread spread. Mmh, yummy!


Sour cream is one of those ingredients that I have been using for most of my life.  It wasn’t until recently that I even thought about its name.  Sour. Cream.  After I thought about that, I wondered how hard it would be to learn how to make sour cream from scratch, and was delighted to learn that it is not hard at all!

If you have a couple of minutes, and 24 hours to wait, you can make homemade sour cream in your own kitchen.  It’s so easy, the novice chef wouldn’t even sweat over it.

Sour cream is a natural product. Cream from fresh milk, if left in a warm place, sours. That’s easy! And that is exactly how grandma made sour cream.

However, most of us do not have real milk, and even less real unpasteurized cream. Good thing sour cream is very easy to make even from store bought, pasteurized cream.

1 cup amul fresh cream
