Sour Cream Powder - Creamy Low-Lactose with Probiotics, Powdered for Long Shelf Life - Easy 2:1 Mix for Baking, Toppings, Dips, Sour Cream & Onion Seasoning - Non-GMO, Gluten-Free

We live in SE Alaska - OffGrid- & on a remote island. All of our groceries and supplies are brought in by float plane. Sometimes planes are delayed up to 45 days due to weather. We love sour cream. 😍 So decided why not try this, as it's shelf stable, until you make a batch. It mixes right into sour cream. Literally add water and that's it. The texture is awesome. We used to have a dairy farm in VA, we know milk & creams. 😅 And this tastes almost like the sour cream I used to make back on our dairy for our customers. We've been making small batches so as not to have an abundance go bad.. I cannot speak to the shelf life of it once it's made, as we've been eating it within 7 days.

The product reconstitutes swell and has a nice flavor. I was pleasantly surprised. Looking forward to using it on my next Backcountry paddle.

The ratio of 2 water parts powder to 1 parts resulted in a thicker product. A better ratio seems to be 2 parts powder to1 and 1/4 (scant) water. It improves with time in the refrigerator. As a dip, probably not as good as dairy. Do not know if it is satisfactory for cooking. This is rather expensive, need to factor in convenience and less chance for waste.

I can’t see this working as a chip-dip base. Experiments continue. My guess is that, as with powdered butter, small fractions of powdered milk is used as an anti-caking agent. This because the flavor is not as intense as you might hope. I am guessing that the lactic acids are diluted. I will buy again. I wonder if I could get good tang results in a stroganoff if I chested with a bit of cream of tartar…

Glad I found this! Closest to what I grew up on. Could only find sweet buttermilk.

Many times I have not made something because I did not have sour cream. Something that is shelf stable like this presents the ability to always have sour cream available. But the taste leaves a lot to be desired. If it's cooked in something, it works fine, but as a topping, you're better off without it.

This is a great thing to have on hand as I usually end up throwing the rest of the sour cream away. Very handy!

Great product. Use it in my Meals in a Jar
