HOW TO STABILIZE WHIPPED CREAM WITH SOUR CREAM

Category: Desserts

Start whipping 1 cup heavy cream as usual. Just after soft peaks start to form, add about 1/4 cup sour cream. You can keep your stabilized whipped cream in the fridge for at least four hours before serving.

It is better to under-whip your cream than over-whip it, so watch it carefully. I like to under-whip it slightly when I make it in advance, then give it a final whip by hand to get it where I want it right before serving. And if you need your whipped cream super stabilized, a quick chill in the freezer will help things considerably. You can leave the finished product sitting out longer with the sour cream addition
