Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 2 cups heavy cream
- 1 cup whole milk
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 packet (2 1/4 tsp) unflavored gelatin
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 cups chopped rhubarb
- 1/2 cup sugar (for rhubarb)
- 1/4 cup water
- 1 tsp lemon juice
Instructions
- In a small bowl, sprinkle the gelatin over 1/4 cup of the milk and let it sit for 5 minutes to bloom.
- In a saucepan, combine the remaining milk, heavy cream, and 1/2 cup sugar. Heat over medium heat until the sugar is dissolved and the mixture is hot, but not boiling.
- Remove from heat and stir in the bloomed gelatin until fully dissolved. Add vanilla extract.
- Pour the mixture into serving glasses or molds. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours or until set.
- Meanwhile, in a separate saucepan, combine rhubarb, 1/2 cup sugar, and water. Cook over medium heat until the rhubarb softens and breaks down, about 10 minutes.
- Remove from heat and stir in the lemon juice. Let cool to room temperature.
- Spoon the rhubarb compote over the chilled panna cotta before serving.
Notes
- For a smoother rhubarb topping, you can puree the compote and strain it.
- You can substitute the rhubarb with strawberries for a sweeter variation.
- Make sure to let the panna cotta set fully before adding the topping.
