    No, it's the virtually fat free one, plain, what's it's like before all the sweeteners and colourings are added.

  • You can freeze them for ice yoghurt things or how about adding to fresh fruit smoothies. Layer on top of a biscuit base for a yoghurty cheesecake or mix with meringues and fresh berries for an eton mess sort of dessert.

    If you feel my post has been useful, " merci" would not go amiss.

    Yes - I did it on Sunday.

    It looks a little curdley towards the end of cooking, but it sorted itself out in the end.

    I wouldn't hesitate to use it wherever yoghurt, soured cream, smetana or creme fraiche was suggested. I've also used it instead of skyr and it's been fine.
    I could dream to wide extremes, I could do or die: I could yawn and be withdrawn and watch the world go by.

    Had a bit of a blonde moment today and bought 500g of Fromage Frais instead of Creme Fraiche (plan was to make home made ice cream). Any ideas what I can do with it? The use by date is the end of the week so I could use up for my lunches or for an evening meal.

    I know it's a bit of a $64 million question without knowing what other ingredients I have but all ideas welcome.

    Thanks
