Panna Cotta Base

Method

Panna Cotta Base

  1. 1

    Prepare the Gelatin

    In a small bowl, sprinkle the gelatin over cold water and let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until it blooms.

  2. 2

    Heat the Cream Mixture

    In a saucepan, combine the heavy cream, whole milk, and granulated sugar. Heat over medium heat, stirring frequently until the sugar dissolves and the mixture is hot but not boiling.

  3. 3

    Combine Gelatin with Cream Mixture

    Remove the saucepan from heat. Add the bloomed gelatin to the hot cream mixture, stirring until fully dissolved. Stir in the vanilla extract.

  4. 4

    Pour into Molds

    Pour the mixture into individual serving cups or molds. Allow them to cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 4 hours (or overnight) until set.

Berry Sauce

  1. 5

    Cook the Berries

    In a saucepan, combine the mixed berries, granulated sugar, and lemon juice over medium heat. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally until the berries break down and the sauce thickens slightly.

  2. 6

    Cool the Sauce

    Remove from heat and let the berry sauce cool to room temperature. You can strain the sauce if you prefer a smoother texture.

  3. 7

    Serve

    Once the panna cotta is set, carefully unmold it onto serving plates and drizzle the berry sauce over the top before serving.
