Spread it on your wrist: how to determine the authenticity of sour cream - useful advice

Surely many of us have faced the problem of purchasing low-quality sour cream.

Of course, we don’t want to buy the same product later – with quality that doesn’t meet our expectations.

Especially sour cream with starch added to it (and some manufacturers do this for thickness).

In the latter case, when a thick product is obtained, it is “added” to have a higher fat content and, accordingly, is sold at a higher price.

And what does the consumer get as a result? A product with much worse taste qualities compared to real sour cream.

You can check its quality yourself by simply applying a thin layer of sour cream to the back of your hand.

Then wait a few minutes. If the sour cream is of good quality, it will be absorbed into the skin and leave behind only a small greasy mark.

If there are additives in the sour cream, it will either not be absorbed into the skin at all, or will form a sticky film.

Earlier it became known why experienced housewives mix vinegar with cloves.
