Why doesn't the lemon juice curdle the crème fraîche?

I think because it's essentially already curdled. I think of it more like sour cream than yogurt.

Thanks Paul. I guess I always thought creme fraiche (too lazy to go Google and get the accents) was more like whipped cream.

It's fermented, and actually thicker than our sour cream.

I also had a Senior Moment and posted it in the Recipes and Side Dishes thread. :) I've edited that post to a link to the recipe in the Desserts thread.

I was perusing the Main and Sides thread and rediscovered the forgotten Comic Crispybread interlude in the middle!! A sideshow in the middle of the main event, so to speak!! And once again, John, happy birthday, you funny man!!

I do have a toaster so a blowtorch wasn't needed, but I misread your instructions and buttered the toaster instead of the bread. My second attempt didn't work out either, as I attempted to toast the butter, and then spread the bread on that. Very unsatisfactory. Phillip helped me with the third attempt where I held a piece of toasted bread, he held a knife with butter on it, and we ran towards each other. That worked, and the scars should be healing soon.
But what I found worked best for me was not pretending I could cook and simply buying this in the grocery store. I found that Kraft Foods now offers "K.C. McToasties." It's pre-toasted and pre-buttered bread that you simply put in the microwave. It's good, but I wish it came in more varieties. They only have "Light" and "Dark Their web site says "Medium" is also available, but only in select stores on the West coast. I guess they're test marketing it now.
