CREMA

Crema is thinner than sour cream, a little more tangy and slightly salty. You can sometimes find it in stores, but it's very simple to make at home by combining sour cream with heavy cream and lime juice (you could use buttermilk instead) and allowing it to set up at room temperature for a few hours, until it turns into a kind of liquid velvet. It's marvelous with fish tacos, as a dressing for hot slaw, or drizzled over roasted carrots or sweet potatoes. Once you start using it, you will use it all the time.

Steps:

  • Whisk the sour cream and heavy cream together in a bowl, then add the salt and the lime juice, and whisk again. Cover the bowl, and allow it to sit at room temperature for a minimum of 2 hours and ideally overnight. It will thicken nicely. Use right away, or transfer to a jar and store in the refrigerator until ready to use.

LIMBER DE CREMA

As a kid I felt apprehensive about this this flavor because of the name-- a cream limber just sounded a bit unappetizing. Then I finally tried it, and it quickly became one of my favorites. Subtle notes of cinnamon and milky richness make this one an unforgettable treat.

Steps:

  • Place seven 8-ounce plastic cups on a tray small enough to fit into your freezer.
  • Combine the evaporated milk, condensed milk, sugar, vanilla, cinnamon and 2 cups water in a blender and blend until homogeneous. Taste the mixture for sweetness and adjust to taste; you may want to add up to an extra tablespoon of sugar.
  • Pour the mixture into the prepared plastic cups, filling them to about 1/4 inch from the brim. Sprinkle each cup with a bit of ground cinnamon, if desired. Freeze until fully frozen, at least 8 hours. The limbers will keep in the freezer for up to a month.

Two 12-ounce cans evaporated milk
One 14-ounce can sweetened condensed milk
2 tablespoons sugar, plus more if needed
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon, plus more for sprinkling, optional

ZESTY CHIPOTLE LIME CREMA

I love this combination of ingredients and have used them before in an aioli . I was inspired by a couple of other recipes to mix them in sour cream instead to make a delicious crema. This makes a delicious topping for tacos, enchilada's or anything else you want to add some pizzaz to! One chipotle is plenty spicy for us, add more to your personal taste.

Zesty Chipotle Lime Crema image

Steps:

  • Mix all ingredients in a bowl with an immersion blender or in a regular blender. Make sure all ingredients have fully blended, no lumps. Serve or chill for later - will thicken slightly.
  • Notes:.
  • This is a recipe that really flexes to personal taste.
  • Add a little zest unless you like a lot - then add more.
  • Start with juice from half the lime , one garlic and one chipotle, ziz it up, then add what you like more of - I like 1 chipotle, 2 garlic and juice from the whole lime and zest from half a lime, but lime sizes vary greatly and so does how much juice you get. You want a tangy, garlicky crema with some pow from the chipotle.

LIME CREMA FOR CHILI, TACOS, FAJITAS AND MORE

This combination of sour cream and lime is to die for (if you like limes lol). I use it instead of plain sour cream in lots of recipes, and have changed it to tangerine, lemon or other citrus fruits as well. 3 recipes on zaar use it, but it deserves its own spot as a condiment in its own right
