Pana Cotta(collaboration with {http://www.gretaleejw.blogspot.co.id})

Today I made pana cotta. Pana cotta is one of my favourite desserts to eat! Its pretty heavy so make sure you don't make too much in one portion when your making it. Pana cotta is usually served with fruits or sauces. I will show you how to make a few different sauces in another post. Lets get started with the recipe!

What you will need:

-1 Envelope of Unflavored Gelatin
-2 Tbsp of Water

-1 cup of Half and Half(equal mixture of milk and cream)
-½ cup of Heavy Cream
-1 tsp of Vanilla Extract-½ tsp of Lemon peel
-2 Tbsp of Granulated Sugar

Directions:

1) Place the water in a small bowl and sprinkle over the gelatin, set aside to soften.

2) In a small saucepan, add the heavy cream, half and half, lemon zest and sugar, bring to a simmer over medium heat. Turn the heat off and add the gelatin mixture, whisk for a couple minutes or until the gelatin melts.  

3) Strain this mixture and add the vanilla extract to the strained mixture. 

4) Divide the mixture between three large ramekins or four small ones. Cover and refrigerate 4 hours or overnight.
