White Wine Strawberries with Whipped Crème Fraîche

Tip! What makes it possible to whip the Crème Fraîche is its fat content, so don't use Crème Fraîche light if you want to achieve the right consistency. On the other hand, it'€™s possible to serve the strawberries with a dab of unwhipped Crème Fraîche.
