"Jerky is meat that has been cut into strips, trimmed of fat, marinated in a spicy, salty, or sweet liquid, and dried or smoked with low heat (usually under 70°C/160°F) or is occasionally just salted and sun-dried. The result is a salty, savory, or semi-sweet snack that can be stored for a long time without refrigeration.

Jerked meat was one of the first human-made products and was a crucially important food preservation technique for survival.

The word "jerky" comes from the Quechua term Charqui, which means "to burn (meat)".

neutral  emiledgar: this is not jerky, this is jerk, a Jamaican sauce in which meat isd marinated and then cooked, fo instance, Jerk Chicken. Jerk sourcream would be sour cream with jerk sauce in it.

Crême fraîche assaisonné à la jamaîcaine


Explanation:
Since sour cream doesn't exist in Europe, and crême fraîche is cultured in Europe (as opposed to in the US) so somewhat sour, this would taste pretty much the same and the reader would have a good understanding of what the dish tastes like.

On retrouve souvent le terme "jerk" dans les recettes française, à égalité avec "à la jamaïcaine"...
