Panna Cotta
Instructions
Firstly, soak the sheets of gelatin in cold water for 10 minutes (1) and cut the vanilla pod lengthwise (2).
Pour the heavy cream into a small saucepan, add the carved vanilla pod (3), the powdered sugar (4) and heat everything on a low flame, without making it boil; squeeze the gelatin well (5) and dip it into the cream (6), then stir until completely melted (7).
Now filter the mixture through a fine strainer (8), prepare several individual moulds or a single bread mould and pour in the panna cotta (9).
Keep the panna cotta in the refrigerator for at least 5 hours; when it's time to serve it, dip the mould into hot water for a few seconds, then turn it out on a serving dish: serve it plain, with caramel, melted chocolate or with your favourite decoration.
