Title: MAKING YOUR OWN DEVONSHIRE OR
CLOTTED CREAM
Categories: Misc, British
Yield: 1 servings
In winter, let fresh, unpasteurized cream stand 12 hours, (in
summer,
about 6 hours) in a heat-proof dish. Then put the cream on to
heat -
the lower the heat the better. It must never boil, as this
will
coagulate the albumen and ruin everything. When small rings
or
undulations form on the surface, the cream is sufficiently scalded.
Remove at once from heat and store in a cold place at least 12
hours.
Then skim the thick, clotted cream and serve it very cold as a
garnish for berries, or spread on scones and top with jam.
