Clotted cream comes from England where it is traditionally served with scones and strawberry jam as part of an afternoon tea or cream tea. A true Englishman will always put the strawberry jam on the scones first and spoon the clotted cream on top. Clotted cream is made in a similar way to Swiss cream – the fats in the milk result in cream forming on top of the fresh milk. To make clotted cream, the milk is then gently heated until little clots form in the layer of cream. The thickened cream is then scooped off the top. Clotted cream has a similar consistency to soft butter, however the flavour (and fat content) is more like that of mascarpone.
