United StatesDelicious and Easy!
I have used this starter several times. Very delicious and easy to make.
Sour cream starter culture
My daughter got me hooked on making my own sour cream with just a small packet of starter. I have never liked sour cream but after making the homemade sour cream, I was hooked!! So easy to make!
Great Taste & Easy
The sour cream starter culture is very easy to use and creates delicious sour cream. Yummy!
Love this Sour Cream
Taste is great but I thought it was a little runny so I tried adding powdered milk. Next time I'll try using heavy cream instead of half and half.

We enjoy sour cream, but I've been skeptical of the milk quality used for the store-bought kind. I made my first quart of sour cream using this starter and local raw cream, and it is good. So simple and so good. I will keep culturing it at home.
