If you're like me and don't always have time to wait hours for homemade crema Mexicana to do it's thing (and you can't always find it at the market), here's a better solution than settling on plain old sour cream. Adapted from Tamales 101 by Alice Guadalupe Tapp.
Ingredients:
1 pint sour cream
3/4 cup half-and-half
1/2 cup filtered water
1/2 teaspoon salt
Directions:
1. Whip all ingredients together in a large bowl with an electric mixer. Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 6 days.
2. NOTE: the water prevents the mixture into thickening back into the consistency of sour cream.
