And oh yes, buttermilk is a blank canvas for cold soups! Add your favorite veg or blend in what’s needing to leave your fridge. All good!

I use the full three cups called for before the blogger revised the recipe as I prefer thin crepe like pancakes to thick pancakes.

You can make great crème fraiche with UHT cream, just as UHT milk makes great yogurt. I make kefir cream all the time with UHT cream as it’s the only kind available here. It’s very thick and rich and I like it better than crème fraiche. I’ve also made sour cream and crème fraiche with some dried culture and UHT cream.

I’m not a huge fan of Alton Brown; but that cornbread recipe seriously kicks butt. I can take sour cream; but much prefer Mexican crema to sour cream.

Here’s the recipe I use. Simple as heck. Great for dipping empanadas.
