Does half-and-half cream taste like creme fraiche???

can i substitute half-and-half for creme fraiche???


( for making pumpkin soup)|||you can use it as an alternative.|||You can substitute it but it will not taste exactly the same. Creme fraiche has a tangy taste similar to sour cream due to bacterial action. Thus, you might want to use sour cream instead of half n half if you want the tang.





Real creme fraiche by the way is not available in the US because of pasteurization laws, even though it is harmless.
