Clotted cream is a thick and luxurious dairy product that is made by slowly heating full-fat cow's milk. The heating process causes the cream to rise and form clots, which are then skimmed off and collected. Clotted cream has a rich and silky texture with a slightly sweet and buttery flavor. It is commonly used as a spread or topping for scones, desserts, and fruit. Clotted cream is a specialty ingredient often associated with British cuisine, adding a creamy and indulgent touch to various dishes.
