Panna Cotta Base

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare Gelatin

    In a small bowl, sprinkle gelatin over 2 tablespoons of cold water and let it sit for about 5 minutes to bloom.

  2. 2

    Heat Cream Mixture

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

  3. 3

    Combine Gelatin

    Remove the saucepan from heat. Stir in the bloomed gelatin until completely dissolved. Add Meyer lemon juice and vanilla extract, mixing well.

  4. 4

    Pour and Chill

    Pour the mixture into individual serving cups or ramekins. Allow to cool at room temperature for 10 minutes, then refrigerate for at least 4 hours until set.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Once set, serve chilled. Optionally, you can garnish with additional Meyer lemon zest or fresh berries.
