Instructions:
This image shows the cooking process of the vanilla bean panna cotta. It is important to heat the cream and sugar on low heat and add the gelatin mixture slowly to prevent clumping.
Vanilla Bean Panna Cotta:
- Pour the heavy cream into a saucepan and add the sugar.
- Cut the vanilla bean lengthwise and scrape out the seeds. Add both the seeds and the pod to the saucepan.
- Heat the mixture on low heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar dissolves.
- Remove the vanilla bean pod from the mixture and add the gelatin powder.
- Stir until the gelatin dissolves completely.
- Add the milk and stir until well combined.
- Pour the mixture into ramekins or molds and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until set.
- Once set, run a knife around the edges of the ramekins or molds and invert onto a serving dish to remove the panna cotta.
Raspberry Sauce:
- Combine the raspberries, lemon juice, and honey in a saucepan.
- Cook the mixture over medium heat until the raspberries break down and the sauce thickens.
- Remove from heat and let cool.
- Puree the mixture in a blender until smooth.
- Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve to remove any seeds.
