Whipped cream is like that one charming friend I can bring anywhere.
If I make a bowl of whipped cream, theres a 100% chance of a great dessert.

For all the love I have for whipped cream, it isnt without problems.
If my mind wanders while whisking the cream I can accidentally over-whip it.
It tends to lose air the longer it sits.

And the moment whipped cream gets too warm, it weeps (I imagine they are tears).
Unless youre asuper-taster, you wont notice the taste of the sour cream.
you’re free to use creme fraiche if you have it.

When I want whipped cream, I only want to taste the cream.
If you forgot, thats OK.
Pop them into the freezer for five minutes.

Dont add the sour cream yet.
Whisk just the heavy cream (and sugar, if using) until soft peaks form.
Soft peaks mean the whipped cream will flop over to the side when you lift it with the whisk.
When you tilt the bowl, itll slide.
Add the sour cream and continue whisking until stiff peaks form.
I’ve noticed that adding sour cream makes it harder for heavy cream to overwhip and get grainy.
Whipped cream should be kept cold until ready to useit tastes better chilled anyway!
Though most of the time one of them will lick the bowl clean, sometimes we have leftovers.
Whipped cream needs to be refrigerated, but its a magnet for all the funky fridge smells.
Glass and metal are great for storing whipped cream because they dont take on the smell of food.
And no smell can penetrate the airtight seal of the jar.
Its as airy and fresh as when I first whipped it.
This makes it a great way to plan and make whipped cream before you need it.
