Creme Fraiche is a thickened cream with a slightly tangy, nutty flavor and velvety, rich texture. This French specialty is traditionally made with unpasteurized cream. However, this version is pasteurized and made in Vermont by Vermont Creamery. It is a rich treat that is perfect for thickening sauces and soups because it can be boiled without curdling. It is also delicious spooned over fresh fruit desserts. We especially like it served with our smoked salmon or with caviar. Just a dollop atop a piece of cocktail bread with a slice of smoked salmon lifts the experience to a whole new level. Its creamy tang is the perfect complement to a tender, smoky bite of salmon. Crème fraîche is the traditional accompaniment to caviar, and it smooths out the saltiness of the eggs.
Vermont Crème Fraîche is exquisitely luscious, with a cultured flavor and creamy texture. Enjoy this staple of French cuisine, served by many of the world's finest restaurants.
