Ingredients
For the panna cotta
- 1 1/2 cups milk whole
- 1 1/2 cups heavy cream
- 1 vanilla bean
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 2 1/2 tsp gelatin powder one 1/4 oz. packet
for the brandied apricots:
- 5 apricots pitted and sliced
- 1/4 cups sugar
- 1/2 cup water
- 1/4 cup brandy or Cognac
- 2 tsp lemon juice a good squeeze, fresh
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- Put the apricots, sugar, and water in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil and simmer the apricots for about 3 minutes, just until they soften but haven't broken down. Remove the apricots with a slotted spoon and layer them at the bottom of your serving dishes or jars.
- Add the brandy and lemon juice and boil the sauce for another 10 minutes or so, until it is reduced to a thick syrup. Take it off the heat and stir in the vanilla. Pour the syrup evenly over the apricots, about a tablespoon or so over each jar, don't drown the apricots.
- Meanwhile make the panna cotta---Pour the milk and cream into a saucepan, and add the vanilla bean seeds and the bean itself. Bring it up to a simmer. Turn off the heat and let it steep for about 10 minutes.
- Remove the vanilla bean pod, and add the sugar to the pan. Reheat the mixture and stir, just until the sugar is completely dissolved. Takeoff the heat.
- Put 2 tablespoons of boiling water in a small glass and sprinkle the gelatin over it. Let it sit for a few minutes while the gelatin softens.
- Stir the gelatin into the water until it is completely dissolved. Whisk it into the hot milk and cream mixture and blend it well.
- Carefully pour the mixture into the serving jars, filling to the top. Try not to disturb the apricots too much.
- Refrigerate until firm, about 4 hours.
