Dear All,
have been making Panna Cotta for some while and love it especially in the summer with fresh berries but would like to try a new recipe any ideas thanks pompeyams

Martha has a buttermilk panna cotta in her dessert cookbook that's pretty good (very light). Also made one from Grand Finales, p. 65 mocha panna cotta with carmal rum sauce....it's very heavy so I lightened it.

Mocha Panna Cotta:
2 1/2 tsp. gelatin
2 oz. h2o
18 oz. heavy cream
6 oz.sugar
16 oz. sour cream
2 1/2 tsp. instant espresso
4 oz. semi sweet chocolate

soften gelatin in water. melt choc..
mix the rest together and bring up to "hot" over a double boiler, then fold in gelatin and chocolate.

I didn't try their carmel rum sauce, I went another dirrection with this item.

One of the best is probably the one from The River Café Cookbook - Panna cotta with grappa. Yum!!

The cookbook should be easily found in the UK.

BTW, it was not the clear grappa, but rather the amber colored one (Riserva).

Funny, Pompeyams. Maybe it means you should stick with it!

Can you tell me a bit more about the grappa they use? Brand name?

at your convenience.

Bye for now.

I recently saw a cinnamon panna cotta . Interesting specially if you make it with real cionnamon.
