1-2-3 Simple Sour Cream




Who knew that deliciously creamy sour cream could be made at home and within minutes?!! Seriously life changing stuff here. =D

Sour Cream
1/4 c. Sour Cream. 
1 c. Heavy Cream. Whipping cream yields the thickest sour cream. 

Place the 1/4 c. sour cream into a clean jar that you will be storing your sour cream in. 

Now, pour the heavy cream into the same jar over the sour cream. Mix it all together with a clean knife. 

Place the jar's lid on top loosely so air can escape and not let in bad bacteriums. 

Let sit et on the counter in a draft-free zone for 24 hours. Either it will thicken up nicely or sometimes it will have a bit of cream on the top. No matter, tighten the lid and place in the fridge to stop the fermentation process. Once cooled, mix with a clean knife for a creamy consistency. 

I normally make four jars of sour cream at a time depending on our usage. I have noticed better results using a new sour cream container each time rather than using leftover homemade sour cream. 

Enjoy!
