Some people stockpile toilet paper. Others believe ice cream is a shopping-trip must-have. My motto? Always have heavy cream in the fridge. From savory dishes to sweet, a little bit of this magical ingredient goes a long way by adding richness and silkiness wherever it may be needed. Add a dash to your coffee and feel decadent. Combine it with gelatin and raspberries to make a spectacular mousse. Whip up a batch and include a tablespoon of sour cream, and you have a tangy treat to dollop on any number of fruit desserts.
For sibling No. 7, it’s the star ingredient in his yearly birthday-treat request: strawberry shortcake.
