Description

A delicious addition to everyday and festive dishes. A spoonful of sour cream in borscht or with dumplings is incredibly tasty. As a child, when I spent summers at my grandmother's, homemade sour cream was always on the table. Nowadays, it's not easy to find homemade sour cream in a big metropolis, so I make it myself. And today I'll tell you how. Serve the sauce with meat, fish, or use it as a salad dressing.

Instructions

  1. 1

    Step 1

    Pour the cream and lemon juice into a jar and add the milk.

    Open the can, mix thoroughly until smooth, and cover with a lid.

    Sour cream can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. It turns out slightly runny, so you can add a thickener if you prefer a thicker consistency.
