  • Put it in the freezer. It's great if you have silicone molds or small molds at home. You can leave the sour cream for an hour and put the leftovers in a freezer bag. As for plastic molds, be careful, because a long stay of sour cream will lead to its drying.

  • You should not defrost sour cream several times, the bacteria already live there.

  • Unfortunately, you won't be able to eat frozen delicacy for a long time, use it from 2 to 3 months.

Sour cream sauce

As for sour cream sauces and glazes?

It is better not to freeze the sauce, because you will no longer be able to enjoy the taste and structure.

Therefore, use fresh sauce for a delicious potato dinner.

When defrosting sour cream, you can take a blender or a whisk to make your dinner even tastier.
