Ingredients
- 3 Cups half and half
- 2 ½ Teaspoons unflavored gelatin
- ½ Cup granulated sugar
- 1 1/2 Teaspoon vanilla extract or vanilla bean paste
- 1 Pinch salt
Berry Sauce
- 1 Cup mix berries fresh or frozen
- ¼ Cup granulated sugar
- 1 Tablespoon lemon juice
Instructions
- Start by blooming the gelatin in the half and half. Add half and half to a medium saucepan and sprinkle the gelatin evenly over the surface of it. Let sit for about 5 minutes or so, until the gelatin is dissolved.
- Place the pan over low heat and gently heat the mixture until steaming but be careful not to simmer or boil! After about 2 minutes, stir in the sugar and continue to heat for about 3-5 minutes while the sugar dissolves.
- Remove from the heat and stir in the vanilla and salt. Divide evenly into your ramekins and chill in the fridge overnight.

Unmolding
- If you would like to unmold your panna cotta, prepare a bowl or deep baking dish with hot water and place the ramekins in the hot water, just for 10-15 seconds. Run a knife right around the top rim of the ramekin to loosen the edge and invert it onto a plate. It may need a slight jiggle to completely loosen it from the mold.
- Serve immediately with the berry sauce or cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
Berry Sauce
- In a medium, sauce-pan add the berries, sugar, and lemon juice. Cook over medium-low heat until the berries can be mashed and the liquid becomes thick and syrupy. Remove from the heat and cool completely. Store in the fridge until ready to serve.
