Have you ever wondered how cultured sour cream is made? It’s pretty easy - easy enough to make yourself. All you need are a couple of ingredients and about 24 hours. Oh, and there’s no cooking required. Now that’s what I call easy!

For the ingredients, you need heavy whipping cream and plain yogurt with “live and active cultures”. You can use either regular or greek yogurt, but make sure it’s unflavored.

You can see the ingredient list on the yogurt includes “live and active cultures”.

Combine the proper ratio of cream and yogurt together in a clean jar (recipe below), then cover the jar with a paper towel or other breathable topper and set it aside in a warm corner of your kitchen for the next 24 hours while the magic happens. The sour cream can be used right away or place a lid on the jar and store in the fridge for up to 2 weeks. For a more pronounced tangy flavor, stir a teaspoon or two of freshly squeezed lemon juice into the chilled sour cream.
