GETTING READY
1. For the Creme Fraiche: In a sauce pan, add and combine the whipping cream with the sour cream and heat the mixture on low heat for 10 minutes or until it is thickened. Once done, set it aside to cool.
2. Once the mixture is cooled, transfer it into a bowl and refrigerate it for 30 minutes before serving.

MAKING
