Soured cream recipes
Soured cream is a single cream that's been soured using an added culture (similar to that used in yoghurt).
This slow cooker chilli is made using beef mince and simple store cupboard ingredients. It will keep well in the fridge for a couple of days and freezes beautifully – serve with rice, tacos or warmed tortilla wraps, alongside soured cream or grated cheese and a squeeze of fresh lime, if you like.

Preparation
Soured cream is delicious spooned over baked potatoes and is also used to enrich and add an edge to soups and stews, such as goulash. It's sometimes used in baking - mixing sour cream with cream of tartar results in a very light, airy sponge cake. It also adds a desirable sourness to cheesecakes and chocolate brownies.
