5 Facts about Sour Cream

We all know and love the wonderful creaminess that sour cream can bring to any dish. It tastes great when added to pasta dishes, like the one above, as well as baked goods, desserts, and side dishes. Sour cream is a great refrigerator staple to keep on hand.

  1. Sour cream is made when the bacteria that causes lactic acid is added to cream. The reaction creates the creamy and tart substance called sour cream.

  2. Sour cream loses flavor as it ages. It is still safe to eat for two weeks after the sell by date (if it is sealed), but it will be less flavorful. However, if you notice pink or green scum, throw the sour cream away.

  3. Sour cream comes in several varieties including regular, half-and-half, and non-fat. These different types are made using milk with different concentrations of fat. For example, non-fat sour cream is made with non-fat milk rather than cream.

  4. To prevent sour cream from curdling, stir in 1 tablespoon of flour to each half cup of sour cream.

  5. There are several alternatives for sour cream. Soy sour cream is a dairy free alternative and Greek yogurt is a thicker, more protein-packed alternative to classic sour cream.

I agree, how can you go wrong with three cheeses? I love pasta dishes too and they really love me, if you know what I mean. I really try to stay away from the dairy and pasta dishes whenever I can. Sometimes, it is nice to have a serving or two. This recipe is loaded with all kinds of goodness and deserves to at least get made once at our house.

My boys loved mac and cheese when growing up. However, now as an empty nester, I seldom prepare it because my husband does not care for it at all. Planning on trying this to see if it can take the place of the mac and cheese that I miss so much.

These recipes are my favorite kind because you can satisfy with your sweet tooth while keeping it as light as you can. Besides, it's chocolate! I love how fast and easy it is for busy school nights when all you can think about is a nice bowl of something gooey sweet and a few hours of your favorite show.

This looks so delicious. It would be great for a family dinner. I think my nieces would go crazy for it!
