How To Make Panna Cotta
My basic formula for panna cotta goes like this:
1 1/2 cups milk
1/3 cup sugar
2 1/4 teaspoons gelatin
1 1/2 cups cream
- To make the panna cotta, sprinkle the gelatin over the milk in a small saucepan.
- Let sit for about 1 to 2 minutes or until it "blooms" — the gelatin grains will swell and wrinkle and look like they've absorbed some liquid.
- Stir in the sugar and warm over low heat — don't boil! — for about 60 seconds, or until both the sugar and gelatin dissolve. (Rub between your fingers and see if there is any grittiness left.)
- Whisk in the cream and any flavorings, like vanilla.
- Pour into 4 to 6 small dishes.
ENJOY!!
