Description

Light sour cream with chives is a creamy and slightly acidic dairy ingredient, ideal for adding a fresh and savory touch to your recipes. It is a low-fat version of traditional sour cream, enriched with thin strips or pieces of chives, which provide a subtle fresh onion flavor and a characteristic aroma.

This product is very popular in North American and European cuisine, especially in dishes that require a smooth cream but with a different touch, such as dips, salad dressings, toppings for baked potatoes, tacos, soups, and sauces.

Regarding its origin, sour cream comes from the lactic fermentation of cream, and chives are a culinary herb widely used in many cultures for their delicate and versatile flavor.

Properties: Light sour cream with chives is lower in fat than traditional sour cream, making it a healthier option for those who want to control their caloric intake without sacrificing flavor or texture. In addition, chives provide vitamins A and C, as well as antioxidant compounds that can help improve digestion and add nutritional benefits.

Synonyms in Latin American Spanish: In different regions, these preparations may have various names, although the specific combination of sour cream with chives is usually preserved. In some countries, it may be known simply as light sour cream with chives, fresh cream with chives, or light cream with green onion, with "green onion" being a very common term in Argentina, Uruguay, and parts of Mexico to refer to chives.
