Panna Cotta Base
Method
Preparation
Prepare the Gelatin
In a small bowl, sprinkle the gelatin powder over the cold water. Let it sit for about 5 minutes until it blooms.
Heat the Cream Mixture
In a saucepan, combine the heavy cream, whole milk, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract. Heat over medium heat until the mixture is hot but not boiling.
Dissolve the Gelatin
Remove the saucepan from heat. Stir in the bloomed gelatin until completely dissolved.
Pour into Molds
Pour the mixture into serving molds or cups. Allow to cool for about 30 minutes at room temperature.
Chill
Cover the molds with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or until set.
Prepare Blueberry Sauce
In a small saucepan, combine 1 cup of fresh blueberries, 2 tablespoons of sugar, and 1 tablespoon of lemon juice. Cook over medium heat until the blueberries burst and the mixture thickens slightly, about 10 minutes.
Serve
To serve, run a knife around the edge of each panna cotta mold and invert onto a plate. Top with the blueberry sauce and fresh blueberries.
