That seems kinda risky. Could you not just leave it in the fridge for longer instead of at room temp?

no you retard because the culture won't develop. it's perfectly safe. how the fuck do you think they make cheese?

i posted this earlier in a butter thread..
at work, to make creme fraiche, we do:
1 gallon heavy cream
1/2 cup buttermilk
whisk together, leave at room temp for two days. that's it.
i eat it constantly, customers eat it constantly, it's all good. quit being such a fucking faggot. like >>7472062 said, the cultures need to be able to develop to change the cream into sour cream. what the fuck did you think sour cream was?
do you also not eat lacto-fermented foods?

Does any local super market have full fat whole Fage Total Classic greek yogurt? This would be a great substitute. Don't bother with any other "greek yogurt" a lot of them aren't strained and use binders and fillers to thicken the yogurt, which will in most cases turn into a mess if heated.

Sour cream may not work, it's lower in fat content than creme fraiche and will most likely curdle up if heated.

Too late. I just put it in the oven.

Smells good.
Ima let it cool, then cross section pics.
I am hungry so it's really hot and plating was a disaster.
Still good tho.

Looks great. What kind of cheese did you use?
lemon juice and sour cream make a quick shitty cf, zest is good too.
I do 4l cream 1l buttermilk with 4 lemons+zest and salt, 2 days at room temp and strain, makes a good batch.

Brie and some grated gruyere.
It's almost better than I imagined, like scalloped potatoes except better and with bacon.
>>7472350
How much does brie cost you in the boonies?
>>7472364
It was half off because it was almost "expired" whatever that means. So I got a pound wheel for about $7.50

Damn, nice find.
