Vegan Chia Panna Cotta with Berries
Description
The vegan chia panna cotta combines soy milk with chia seeds and vanilla sugar to create a plant-based dessert that thickens without gelatin. Heating half the soy milk nearly to boiling helps soften the chia seeds, which swell as they absorb liquid, forming a pudding-like consistency after refrigerating. The mixture is whisked thoroughly to evenly distribute the seeds and prevent clumping before chilling for at least an hour.
The dish is topped with a berry component, which can be a homemade jam prepared by cooking mixed berries, water, and sugar together or fresh mixed berries in season. This adds a vibrant fruit flavor and balances the creamy texture with tartness and sweetness. The panna cotta can also be baked briefly for a different texture and presentation when set in glass jars.
