What it is

It is a versatile ingredient that can be used in both sweet and savory dishes.

Crème Fraîche can be used in many ways in the kitchen. It is excellent stirred into hot dishes like soups and stews, as its high fat content helps prevent it from curdling. It can also be used to create smooth and creamy sauces by whisking it with other ingredients. For desserts, it provides a tangy counterpoint to sweet flavors, and it can be whipped or simply dolloped onto fruit or pastries. It is also a fantastic base for dips and spreads, offering a richer alternative to sour cream.
How it differs from similar foods
Unlike sour cream, crème fraîche has a higher fat content and a less pronounced tang. This makes it more stable when heated and gives it a richer, smoother mouthfeel. Its cultured flavor is also more subtle and complex, adding a refined richness to dishes.
