Can creme fraiche be used as a savoury/healthy alternative to soured cream? I am having a very hot homemade chilli tonight and would like to cut back on some calories......
i use it instead of the creme part of creme brulee. mix together some strawbs, sliced nectarines or peaches, and grapes. put some ratafia biscuits on top, and then two pots of creme fraiche. top the lot with some soft brown sugar and either zap it with a blow torch or put under a very hot grill for a couple of minutes.
