Panna Cotta at Home

In one of the northern cities of Italy, in Piedmont, a unique dessert recipe was born, which has become a classic for the local cuisine. This is panna cotta. No specific products are required for its preparation. Only high-quality and fatty cream from natural ingredients, as well as a gelling agent. This can be gelatin or agar-agar. A delicious and simple dessert can be prepared in just half an hour. And it is recommended to serve it with berry puree from frozen components or with fresh fruit.

Panna Cotta at Home - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Yes, you can use 2 teaspoons of pure vanilla extract instead of the pod. Add it after heating the cream, just before adding gelatin.
Replace gelatin with agar-agar (use 1 teaspoon powdered agar-agar dissolved in 2 tablespoons water). Heat the mixture until fully dissolved before combining with cream.
Keep refrigerated in airtight containers for up to 4 days. Place plastic wrap directly on the surface to prevent skin formation.
Yes! Use full-fat coconut milk 1:1 for cream. The texture will be slightly lighter but equally delicious.
Ensure gelatin is fully dissolved before adding to cream, and strain the mixture through a fine sieve before pouring into molds.
Freezing isn't recommended as it changes the creamy texture. Thawed panna cotta becomes grainy and separates.
Top with fresh berries, caramel sauce, or toasted nuts. For elegant presentation, serve with edible flowers or mint sprigs.
Use shot glasses or petite ramekins. Reduce refrigeration time to 1.5-2 hours for smaller servings.
