Method
Preparation
- In a small bowl, sprinkle the gelatin over the cold water and let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until it blooms.
- In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the heavy cream and granulated sugar. Stir until the sugar dissolves, and the mixture is warmed but not boiling. Add the vanilla extract.
- Once the cream mixture is warm, remove it from heat and stir in the bloomed gelatin, making sure it’s completely dissolved.
- Pour the panna cotta mixture into individual cups or molds and refrigerate for at least 4 hours (or overnight).
- While the panna cotta is setting, prepare the passion fruit sauce by combining the fresh passion fruit pulp, sugar, lemon juice, and water in a small saucepan. Heat until the sugar dissolves.
- Let the sauce cool before drizzling it over the panna cotta.
- Once the panna cotta is set, carefully run a knife around the edges to release it from the mold, or serve it in cups. Top with the passion fruit sauce.
Notes
If you can’t find fresh passion fruit, a high-quality passion fruit puree works just as well. Feel free to add toppings like toasted coconut, fresh berries, or mint leaves. This panna cotta is a great make-ahead dessert.
