"Most people make a facsimile of crème fraîche by adding a tablespoon of
buttermilk to a cup of whipping cream, heating it gently to 110°F (45°C),
then putting it in a loosely covered bottle in a warm place and letting it
sit for anywhere from 8 hours to a couple of days, until thick. Store it in
the refrigerator, where it will thicken further, and keep for about three
weeks. You can also whip it like whipping cream."

Remember, "facsimile"
