Just under a week ago, I tried to make homemade sour cream, but it did not ever thicken. It's been sitting out and now looks curdled and separated. I have a different recipe I'm going to try, but I wanted to know if what I have from my first attempt is salvageable in any way. What is in those jars now, can it be used or reused?
The ingredients included half and half (store bought) and buttermilk (left from butter I made from heavy cream and a bit of whole milk, both store bought), which was just about a week old when I tried to make the sour cream. It had been refrigerated that whole time. Thanks in advance!
