If you don't have a light in your oven, you could wrap it in a towel and place it in a slow cooker on warm or even sit it wrapped in a towel on a heating pad on the lowest setting. You just don't want it over 100° or it will kill the bacteria that you trying to grow.....you're not cooking it here, just warming it up for the bacteria to grow.
@@MrBootsandBounty We have a light but the bottom of the oven has openings and thebpilot light burns below it. I'm just afraid something would happen and the pilot light would catch the towel on fire. I'm going to try the crockpot on low. Worst case, I lose some cream experimenting. If that doesnt work I'll put the wrapped jar in the oven closed up in a casserole dish.
An extremely informative and no nonsense presentation. I’ve had excellent results with this method and it’s great! I even fermented for 23 hours and still got a good product. Well done!
Your video is very good and entertaining.. I have been making cultured sour cream for 53 years.. I always just leave it out on the counter from 12 to 36 hours. I have never done the oven method.. The longer it ferments the more "sour" it is.. the more benefits from it.. Just wanted you to know you can skip the oven step and it ends up the same thickness.. thanks
And it depends on the temp in your house too. I do the oven method because the bacteria grows best between 90-110 for 12 hours. It would just grow slower sitting out, which is fine too. Thanks for sharing!! ❤️
I have made it twice ... loved it.. it has to stay warm.mine is just taste like the store stuff. Has to be room temp. Before you mix it . Instead of yogurt I use cr , milk , lemon juice. .. all I'm doing is fermenting. Keep it another24 hrs you got cheese... just as good...
Glad it was helpful! We love it and have several locally that we make it for them. You can tell a difference between homemade and what came from a store.
Good morning, So glad your channel came up in my feed. Looks like I have some videos to catch up on. I've been looking about making sour cream. I already make yogurt so this should be a snap. I use my Excalibur for the yogurt. Great grandma's can learn new things, yay! I live in West Tennessee so hi neighbor. Hope you're having a good week-end.
OHHH HELLO Donna!! So nice to meet you! Glad you found us too! Yes, this comes out to be a VERY thick sour cream. I have had it one or two times to not set for some reason and I'm not sure why because I do it the same way every time. But usually I have to use a spoon to scoop it like ice cream LOL. We love it and I hope you enjoy it too! Let me know if you ever need anything, neighbor!
You can make just about everything yourself! You can do the same thing here, but use milk instead of cream and it makes plain yogurt, forgot to say that on the video!
Thanks Kacy! I made sour cream with vinegar and we didn't care for it. I can't wait to try it this way! I have already been making yogurt so this will be easy. Blessings-Cyndi
@@GoingGreenMom no ma'am. Two different things. Cultured cream is dead, it has to have live cultures to be fermented. Fermentation is the act of growing the bacteria, or cultures, to act as a probiotic.
My hubs walked in the office and was like what the hell are you watching, why is she putting a towel in the oven, Hahah!!! I don't eat sour cream or fermented stuff but I watched cause I love you guys :P That did get thick in the fridge!
That would depend if there is any bad bacteria introduced into it (to where it would grow black mold) from other foods or spoons. it's fermented so it has a long shelf life in the fridge, but I couldn't put a number on it. We don't allow it to sit long enough to worry about it 😉😂. It does tend to dry around the edges of the jar as the volume gets lower but it doesn't hurt anything. I've never had it go bad and it takes us 1-2 months to use a whole quart.
Thank you 😊 So nice of you. This has become a staple for our house. So easy to make you own anytime you need it and it is healthier than what you buy at the store.
You can use whatever bacteria you want. It's just easiest for everyone to purchase chobani. I've never used kefir so I don't have any on hand to use. If you do, try it!
Mine usually lasts about a month. The only thing you need to watch for is mold. I have learned to be really careful about the utensils I use getting it out because they will introduce bacteria easily and cause mold. Otherwise, it will last until you eat it all most likely! 😁
I tried to make it but it never firm. I place it in the oven, even after I warm the oven, the temperature dropped below the warm temp. I have tried this twice and given up. It’s still liquidity.
@@kimgowers486 so you put the culture in it, shook it, and then put it in warm oven? You'll have to maintain at least 90° the whole time. I like to let everything come to room temp first, mix, warm in oven for a couple hours, then wrap in a towel to keep it warm. Try that. It might not have gotten warm enough. I think shaking it helps too! I've only ever had one not solidify, and that was my first one that didn't get warm enough throughout.
@@BootsandBountyHomesteadIt has been awhile sometime last year when I made it the second time. I shook it but I don't recall how long. My oven lowest time is about 175 degree I believe. I turn the oven on until it gets to that temp and turn if off. Then I wrap the towel around the jar....and It never firm up after 10 hours.
Well, then this is the trick to getting thick yogurt that people complain about not being able to achieve because I have to scrape it out with a spoon! Lol, it's like a brick sometimes! Tastes just like "daisy" either way and we use it on everything! I wouldn't like the taste or texture if this was used as a yogurt. Yogurt is usually made with more milk than cream, from what I see other people do. Regardless, bacteria is bacteria 🤷🏼♀️
@@BootsandBountyHomesteadWhow ! So you ADD that buttermilk to the milk/starter mix or do you replace the regular milk with buttermilk? This is huge ! Thanks ! I used evaporated milk (no added sugar) with some milk powder and it got me like a cream dessert. Delicious !
@@4nbop80user I used yogurt as a culture, but you can use REAL cultered buttermilk as they were explaining about. You are adding live bacteria cultures to cream to get it to ferment and "sour". I guess you could use all real cultured buttermilk, it just would probably be REALLY sour after 12 hours because it would be concentrated with bacteria and not mixed with an uncultured cream to ferment.
Ok I was wondering because I make my yogurt with heavy whipping cream and yogurt cultures. I make it in my electric pressure cooker that has a yogurt button. I let it go for 9 hours. I'm gonna try this thanks.
@@QueenMary.A.L oh that's cool! Mine is really hard and thick. I plan on making some yogurt soon. I was wondering if it would be the same or not. I've never made yogurt.
Hi Kacy! I have a gas oven and don't want to put a towel in there because oof the flame. Can it be cooked in a slow cooker instead?
Hey @Lilybee. You don't turn the oven on. You are only using the heat provided by the lightbulb. Does yours have a light in the oven?
If you don't have a light in your oven, you could wrap it in a towel and place it in a slow cooker on warm or even sit it wrapped in a towel on a heating pad on the lowest setting. You just don't want it over 100° or it will kill the bacteria that you trying to grow.....you're not cooking it here, just warming it up for the bacteria to grow.

Wow Kacy, that was super easy, I would have never know. Thanks so much. This is a gem. I eat a lot of sour cream.
Glad it was helpful! We love it and have several locally that we make it for them. You can tell a difference between homemade and what came from a store.
I just put raw cream and plain live yogurt in my oven thanks to this video!!!! I shall have sour cream tomorrow ❤ thank you so much hun!!!!
Fantastic!! We love it!

You can make just about everything yourself! You can do the same thing here, but use milk instead of cream and it makes plain yogurt, forgot to say that on the video!
Hi Kacy - I love how much content you offer...I wish I could come take classes from you! HAHAHA!!
So much information in my brain. Not sure I will ever get it all recorded, but we will try and share as much as possible. Stay tuned....
Hi Kacy, such a great idea and recipe to make sour cream at home. I'm totally trying this one. 💯❤👍
Hope you like it! Let us know how it goes for you.
@@BootsandBountyHomestead definitely 😊
Sour cream is so expensive here so it's nice to know how to make it for myself.
Another good one
Awww, thanks!! Hope you enjoy!
Thanks Kacy! I made sour cream with vinegar and we didn't care for it. I can't wait to try it this way! I have already been making yogurt so this will be easy. Blessings-Cyndi
Oh yay!!! Enjoy!
You can also use cultured sour cream for a starter. Mmmm. Best sour cream I’ve ever tasted! Homemade is healthy and best tasting!
Nothing like homemade anything really. ☺ Very true on the cultured sour cream for a starter. Thank you for watching
Any idea if Daisy sour cream would work? It doesnt say live cultures, but the ingredient is just cultured cream. @BootsandBountyHomestead

YES...ANOTHER KACY KITCHEN VIDEO 💞. Thank you for sharing this with us... approximately how long with this be good for?

Never heard of fermented sour cream. Interesting.
It's so good and very healthy for you. We only use this sour cream in our household.
Quick question why would you use yogurt couldn't you essentially just use kefir milk?
You can use whatever bacteria you want. It's just easiest for everyone to purchase chobani. I've never used kefir so I don't have any on hand to use. If you do, try it!
How long will the sourcream good for, or when will it expire?

How about in hot country put bowl in the towel and keep under the sun shine
You bet! I totally understand! 😂
Kacy, you made yogurt not sour cream. Use a few ounces of cultured buttermilk with your heavy cream and that will give you a more sour "sour cream"
Well, then this is the trick to getting thick yogurt that people complain about not being able to achieve because I have to scrape it out with a spoon! Lol, it's like a brick sometimes!

Wouldn't this make yogurt?
It will if you use milk and the yogurt cultures. This gets hard, not creamy like yogurt. Same concept though, yes

@@BootsandBountyHomestead i it turns out really good. I have also done my yogurt with milk. Home made is so much better then store bought.
Could you use kefir instead? The bacteria in kefir are vastly better for you.
I haven't done anything with keifer but want to try with grains soon.
