*Crème fraîche is a matured cream that contains between 30% to 40% fat. It originated in Normandy, one of the strongholds of the French dairy manufacture. This delicate yet flavorful product is similar to the American sour cream, thick with hints of tanginess and nutty flavours. Crème fraîche is the staple companion for caviar, smoked salmon, and many other gourmet products.
