👩🍳 Instructions
- 1 Dissolve the powdered gelatin in 3 tbsp of boiled water, stir well, and let it sit for a moment until it swells up like a gel.
- 2 In a saucepan, combine the whipping cream, whole milk, granulated sugar, and agar-agar powder. Stir well before heating so the agar-agar doesn't turn lumpy.
- 3 Heat the cream mixture over low-medium heat, stirring continuously until the sugar dissolves and the mixture becomes warm; do not let it come to a boil and bubble over.
- 4 Add the dissolved gelatin into the hot cream mixture, stirring quickly until fully combined with no lumps.
- 5 Turn off the heat, add the vanilla paste, and stir well. Strain the mixture for a smoother result.
- 6 Pour the cream mixture into serving glasses or ramekins and let it cool at room temperature for about 15 minutes.
- 7 Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or until fully set and firm.
- 8 While waiting, make the blueberry sauce: cook the blueberries, sugar, lemon juice, and water over low heat for 8-10 minutes until the fruit softens and the sauce thickens slightly.
- 9 Mash part of the sauce with a fork for a more interesting texture, leaving some berries whole. Let the sauce cool before using.
- 10 Just before serving, pour the chilled blueberry sauce over the set panna cotta and garnish with fresh mint leaves.
💡 Tips
• Make sure the gelatin is properly dissolved before mixing it into the hot cream so it doesn't clump.
• Use frozen blueberries if fresh ones are hard to find—the result will still be delicious.
• Don't let the cream mixture boil for too long, as it can ruin the final texture of the panna cotta.
• Serve the panna cotta in clear glasses so the sauce layer looks beautiful.
