Panna Cotta Ingredients

Method

Panna Cotta Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare Gelatin

    In a small bowl, sprinkle the gelatin over the cold water and let it sit for about 5 minutes to bloom.

  2. 2

    Heat Cream Mixture

    In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the heavy cream, whole milk, and sugar. Stir until the sugar is dissolved and the mixture is hot but not boiling.

  3. 3

    Add Vanilla and Gelatin

    Remove the saucepan from heat. Stir in the vanilla extract and the bloomed gelatin until completely dissolved.

  4. 4

    Pour into Molds

    Pour the mixture into individual serving molds or ramekins. Allow to cool at room temperature for about 30 minutes.

  5. 5

    Chill

    Cover the molds with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until set.

  6. 6

    Serve with Coulis

    Once set, run a knife around the edges of the molds to loosen the panna cotta. Invert onto a serving plate and top with berry coulis before serving.
