Ingredients
FOR THE PANNA COTTA
- 1 tablespoon gelatine powder
- 2 tablespoons milk (I used 2 %)
- 2 cups cream whole/whipping or heavy cream with at least 30% fat content
- 6 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1½ teaspoons vanilla
BERRY TOPPING
- 1 cup assorted frozen berries of choice (blueberries, raspberries, strawberries etc)
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon corn starch
- 2 tablespoons water
- 2 teaspoons lemon juice
Instructions
FOR THE PANNA COTTA
- In a medium pot add the cream and sugar, heat on medium / low heat just until the cream starts to boil, immediately remove the pot from the heat.
- In a small pot add the 2 tablespoons of milk and sprinkle the gelatine on top, let stand one minute, then place the pot on low heat and heat just until the gelatine has dissolved (1-2 minutes), do not boil, then immediately remove from heat.
- Add the gelatine mixture and the vanilla to the cream mixture, combine well with a whisk. Pour into 4 molds or glasses, let the mixture cool then refrigerate for at least 5 hours or over night or until the panna cotta is firm.
- If using molds then dip the mold into boiling water for about 3-4 seconds, gently slide the tip of a knife around the edge of mold and invert onto a plate. Top with the berry topping and serve. If using a glass then add the berry topping to the top of the panna cotta. Enjoy!
FOR THE BERRY TOPPING
- In a medium pot mix together berries, sugar, cornstarch, water and lemon juice, bring to a boil then lower heat and simmer until desired thickness. Pour into a bowl, let cool then refrigerate for at least a few hours.
Notes
- Panna cotta should be tightly covered with plastic wrap or conserved in an airtight container, then stored in the refrigerator. It will keep for 3-4 days if properly stored.
- It is best to freeze once it has set. It will keep for up to 1 month in the freezer. Never refreeze the panna cotta after it has been thawed. Add the topping before serving.
- If you prefer you can substitute vanilla bean paste for extract at a one for one substitution. Or you could use a vanilla bean, half a bean for one teaspoon of vanilla extract.
- One tablespoon of agar agar flakes or one teaspoon of agar agar powder can be substituted for one packet of gelatine. Mix it with cold liquid, agar agar requires a brief simmer to activate its gelling properties.
