Directions

  • In a bowl, soak the sheets of gelatine in cold water for 5 minutes.
  • In a saucepan over medium-low heat, pour milk and cream.
  • Add in sugar and the vanilla pod, stirring until well combined.
  • Bring it to a light simmer, then remove from the heat.
  • Remove the gelatine from the bowl, squeeze out any excess water and add it into the milk mixture.
  • Stir until the gelatine completely dissolves.
  • Pour the mixture into four ramekins equally, and refrigerate it for at least 4 hours.
  • Remove from the fridge, turn the ramekin upside down on a plate and serve!

Unmoulding the Panna Cotta

When making this panna cotta recipe, it should be fairly easy to unmould it from the ramekins. However, if you’ve run into trouble and the panna cotta is stuck in the ramekin, carefully dip the bottom in a bowl of warm water to loosen the dessert. Try again, and it should slide right out!
