Default How long is it safe to let creme fraiche ferment?

How long is it safe to let creme fraiche ferment?

I heated my to 140 then let it sit for 8 hours but it wasn't as thick as I'd like.

How long can I leave it out without the risk of getting sick?

Best thing to do is 1c cream and 1/4c buttermilk in a glass bowl, cover it with saran wrap, and poke some holes in the top, and let it sit at about 75-85 degrees no hotter. Let it sit overnight and whisk together in the morning. I've done it like this for years its never lumpy and I have NEVER been sick.

Hi abefroman,

this question was asked recently and many participated in the discussion:

Inkedchef's recipe works but make sure you use cultured buttermilk not pasteurized buttermilk which does not have live bacteria.
