So, what is créme acidulée?

Créme acidulée, also known as sour cream, is a rich and tangy dairy product that's commonly used in both sweet and savory dishes across the globe. Made by fermenting regular heavy cream with lactic acid bacteria, it features a thick and creamy consistency with a distinct sour taste. This versatile ingredient can be used to enhance the flavor of dips, sauces, soups, and stews, or as a topping for desserts like cakes and pies. It's also a popular ingredient in Mexican cuisine, where it's often used as a garnish for tacos, burritos, and enchiladas. With its unique flavor profile and texture, créme acidulée adds depth and richness to any dish it's incorporated into.
