Default Creme Fraiche.....

Thanks Jen... The only thing is I am not fond of sweet things...Opposed


For what it's worth, I don't add much sugar. I'm not fond of sickly
sweet things myself!

I was just thinking, I also use it in my lasagne as a base for my white
sauce. 'course, I did nick that idea from Jamie Oliver... heh
Here's my version:

White sauce:
500ml crème fraîche
250g ricotta
1 oz/25g parmesan
1 1/2 tsp fresh basil, crushed and chopped
a few scrapes of nutmeg
a glug or so of milk, to loosen the mixture a bit

It's not that I can't make béchamel, I just have a mild wheat
intolerance and this is a tasty alternative.
