Creme Fraiche is a rich, tangy cultured cream originating from French cuisine, renowned for its velvety texture and versatility. Made by fermenting heavy cream with bacterial cultures, it contains a higher fat content compared to sour cream, typically around 30%, which contributes to its luxurious smoothness and ability to resist curdling when heated. While its high fat content makes it calorie-dense, Creme Fraiche offers a source of calcium and vitamin A, essential for bone health and immunity. Its probiotic cultures may support gut health, although pasteurization can impact these benefits. A staple in European cooking, it is a perfect complement to both savory dishes like soups and sauces and sweet treats such as desserts and fresh fruit. Enjoying Creme Fraiche in moderation can be part of a balanced diet while appreciating its unmatched creaminess and subtle flavor.
