1 stalk vanilla bean
1/2 cup white sugar.
I use even less.
I like to serve the Panna Cotta with either a berry or rhubarb coulis, or a blood and blond orange fruit salad. Slivered Almonds work really well too.

1 and 1/4 cup heavy cream
Go into your kitchen and see which of the following items you do NOT have and go buy them:
Yes, that room…
1 minute: Pour gelatin into skim milk – whisk for a few seconds until fully dissolved.
Who’s your audience and how do they consume? Let’s say six people for a dinner party you’re hosting, or just you for three BIG sittings of Panna Cotta.
1 and 1/4 half & half
3 minutes: Put saucepan on stove; add heavy cream, half & half and vanilla bean and turn stove on high. Stir until it comes to a boil. Here is the only ‘hard’ part: never leave it out of your sight - ever – really! When milk or cream gets hot is rises and kinda “explodes” out of the sauce pan before you can say “shit”….
Pour contents of saucepan into a bowl, let it sit for a few hours to cool down and then put into fridge – don’t freak out – it will be a liquid for quite a while. It needs to be in the fridge overnight to get to the right consistency.
If you want the Panna Cotta to be ready in 4 hours, or you prefer individual servings, pour it into 6 single serving ramekins.
1 minute: Once it boils add skim milk and gelatin and keep stirring continuously for one minute. Done!
Put everything on the kitchen counter and add a sauce pan, a small bowl and a whisk. You’re good to go – no OT and you’re done in less than 5 minutes from now!
1 pack unflavored gelatine
I’m a big vanilla bean fan, so I throw the stalk in from the beginning and towards the end I take it out and cut it the length of the stalk and then squeeze the seeds out and add the seeds sans stalk back into the Panna Cotta.
1/3 cup skim milk
About 320 calories per person/serving. Grand total of 1920 calories for the entire thing. If you only use heavy cream instead of a mix of heavy and half & half, it’s 418 calories per serving (6 servings).
Panna Cotta is Italian for cooked cream – and that’s really all that’s to it – you’re cooking heavy cream. If that’s alright with you we’ll green light the project!
...ok, so add 5 minutes for washing dishes, all 3 of them!
The Panna Cotta stays fine in the fridge for nearly a week – not that it ever survives that long around my house.
Thank you for cooking along!
