Panna Cotta (Basic)

Name: Panna Cotta (Basic)
Ingredients: ¾ tsp powdered gelatin; 2 cups (480 ml) heavy cream; ½ cup (60 g) white granulated sugar; 1½ tsp vanilla essence or 1 small vanilla bean; 1 pinch of salt

Ingredients

¾ tsp powdered gelatin
2 cups (480 ml) heavy cream
½ cup (60 g) white granulated sugar
1½ tsp vanilla essence or 1 small vanilla bean
1 pinch of salt

Steps

Allow the gelatin to bloom in 1 Tbsp of the cream for about 5 minutes.
Combine the remaining ingredients in a medium saucepan over medium heat, and stir occasionally until the sugar dissolves and tiny bubbles appear around the edge of your pan.
Remove from heat and add the gelatin, stirring until it is thoroughly incorporated.
Pour the cream mixture into small ramekins and allow to set in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, up to overnight.
Serve with fresh fruit, balsamic vinegar, port, or a sweet sauce.
