Mexican and Tex -Mex Foods are a real favorite of mine. To really appreciate these foods using the the best and most authentic ingredients available is key. However depending where you live some ingredients may be difficult to obtain or a little pricey. One of those ingredients that should never be substituted is Crema. This thin buttery silky smooth sour cream is very different than the stuff in the plastic tub that says "sour cream". If you have ever tried Crema you know. If you
"do the dollop" from the plastic tub on your tacos, you owe it to yourself try this amazing original condiment. It so easy to make and you won't be paying the $ 4.00 for 12 oz again.
