It wouldn't ruin your dish, only would have a different flavor.

I'd say no, don't do it. I think it would be a disaster.

Cr?¨me fra?che and sour cream are both manufactured cream products. It is a slightly tangy, slightly nutty, thickened cream.

Fromage frais is a creamy soft cheese made with whole or skimmed milk and cream.

Hi. It's hard to answer that without knowing what kind of recipe it is.

It would definitely change the taste and consistency a bit, but if you're using it as a sauce base, for example, it might turn out quite good! There are other things, though, where it wouldn't work.


Can you be a bit more specific?

Edit: Don't know if you'll see this, but for the dish you described, it should be fine. Just be aware that creme fraiche has the consistency of full-fat sour cream. If the fromage frais is more runny, you may have to use a bit less or the dish would be too runny. You can always serve it on the side for those who want more! Good lukc.

yes it will be fine
