- Description
Clotted cream is a thick, light yellow spread that is usually eaten on scones and breads by itself or with fruit jam. It is sometimes served as a garnish on fresh fruit.
Clotted cream is made from high fat content unpasteurized cow's milk that has been warmed over low heat. As it sits in shallow pans to cool, "clots" of cream rise to the surface.
Clotted cream was first made in England where the tradition of taking tea developed. It is mainly produced in Devonshire and Cornwall. Both regions claim to have invented it.
Clotted cream is not sweet. It tastes like a thick whipping cream or unsalted butter and has the consistency of soft cream cheese.
In England, "cream tea" refers to having clotted cream served with scones and a cup of hot tea. This light version of afternoon tea is served as a snack in many American tea rooms.
Clotted cream is available in specialty stores such as World Market, gourmet sections of larger grocery stores or online.
