Ingredients You’ll Need
2 cups heavy cream (preferably organic and without additives)

1 tablespoon lemon juice

Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Preparing the Cream
Start by pouring the heavy cream into a saucepan. Make sure to choose a heavy-bottomed pan to prevent the cream from scorching. Place the saucepan on the stove over medium heat.

2. Heating the Cream
Gently heat the cream, stirring occasionally to ensure it heats evenly. You want to bring the cream to a simmer, not a boil. Keep an eye on it, and when you see small bubbles forming around the edges, it’s time for the next step.

3. Adding the Lemon Juice
