Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Heavy cream
- 1 cup Whole milk
- 0.5 cup Granulated sugar
- 2.5 teaspoons Unflavored gelatin
- 3 tablespoons Cold water
- 0.25 cup Freshly squeezed lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Lemon zest
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 pinch Pinch of salt
- 0.5 cup Fresh berries (for garnish)
- 6 pieces Mint leaves (for garnish)
Instructions
In a small bowl, sprinkle the unflavored gelatin over the cold water and let it bloom for about 5 minutes until softened.
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the heavy cream, whole milk, sugar, lemon zest, and a pinch of salt. Heat the mixture, stirring occasionally, until the sugar has dissolved and small bubbles form around the edges, but do not let it boil.
Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the bloomed gelatin until fully dissolved and no granules remain.
Add the freshly squeezed lemon juice and vanilla extract to the mixture, stirring to combine.
Let the mixture cool slightly for about 5 minutes, then strain it through a fine-mesh sieve to remove the lemon zest and any lumps.
Divide the panna cotta mixture evenly among 6 small serving glasses or ramekins.
Refrigerate the panna cotta for at least 4-6 hours, or until fully set.
Before serving, garnish each panna cotta with fresh berries and a sprig of mint for a pop of color and a fresh aroma.
Serve chilled and enjoy this creamy, citrusy delight!
