Thanks for weighing in hardlikearmour and kristen -- agree with you both. Mainecoon, hope you'll give this recipe a try!

Kristen M. · Answer

The creme fraiche will be a little thicker and tangier, but should be really good in this recipe! Just be sure to add the lemon juice to taste, as Amanda recommends.

I'd omit the lemon juice, and add some lemon zest.
