Has anyone tried making their own sour cream?

Has anyone ever attempted to make their own sour cream? I just discovered that cultured butter is essentially churning sour cream or crème fraîche.

Coming from a South Asian family, we always have homemade yogurt culture available, so I decided to give it a try. I used some decent (not gourmet) heavy cream and prepared it like I would yogurt.

The result? Absolutely delicious! It’s perfect for all sorts of sour cream uses. Plus, once you’re done with it, you can churn the leftovers into butter!

    That sounds amazing! Homemade sour cream is such a game-changer, especially since you can control the flavor and texture. Using your yogurt culture must have added a unique twist to it, too! It’s great to hear that it turned out well for you. Plus, the fact that you can churn the leftover cream into butter is a fantastic bonus—no waste there! Have you tried using it in any specific recipes yet? I’d love to hear how it compares to store-bought sour cream!
