Instructions

  1. Take the butter out of the refrigerator about 30 minutes before so it becomes soft but still fresh.
  2. Place the butter in a bowl and work it with a fork until you have a smooth paste.
  3. Add the crème fraîche, sugar and a pinch of salt, then beat vigorously for a nicely creamy texture.
  4. Taste to check the texture, then cover and keep cool until serving.

Variations and tips

Flavored version. Add a spoonful of orange blossom water for a pleasant floral note.

Using what's available here. Replace the very fresh salted butter with good-quality unsalted butter and add an extra pinch of salt.
