Panna Cotta

Italian panna cotta

Panna cotta isn't between the most known Italian desserts, but lately it's difficult to go out for dinner and don't find it between the dessert choices.

It's a simple cream pudding that in english literally means "baked cream".

You can choose between different toppings that match perfectly, as chocolate fudge, strawberry or red fruits sauce, caramel ...

You'll need (4 people):

• 800ml of milk cream

• 200ml of milk

• 100gr of sugar

• 15 gr of gelatine leaves

• a vanilla stick

How to do it:

Put the vanilla together with the sugar and the milk cream on a medium/low gas. Mix it until the sugar melts.

Put the gelatine sheets to soften for a few minutes into fresh water.

Add the fresh milk to the milk cream and the gelatine sheets well squeezed.

Pour it into one (or individual ones) wet cake pan (being wet avoids the cream to adhere to it), and leave it rest in the refrigerator for at least 12 hours.

If you want to serve it with a strawberry sauce, just put some fruits (cleaned and washed) inside a pan with a couple of spoons of sugar and half glass of water and lei it cook until it gets dense.
