Panna Cotta con Fragole

Description

Chef Salvatore of Capri Palaze takes traditional panna cotta, cooked milk and sugar, then transforms it into a work of art by adding fresh strawberries and golden berries.  Although this creamy dessert is originally from Piedmont, it’s now served throughout Italy.

Ingredients
    For the Panna Cotta
  • 1 Liter Heavy Cream
  • 4 sheets of gelatin
  • Ice cubes, as needed
    • For the Strawberry Purée
  • 550 g Strawberries, cleaned and quartered (1¼ lb)
  • 100 g Sugar (½ cup)
  • ½ sheet of gelatin
  • Ice cubes, as needed
  • Golden berries or small red berries, to garnish
Instructions
  1. 1
    For the Panna Cotta:
    Heat the cream with the confectioners’ sugar and stir until the sugar dissolves.  Soften the gelatin sheets in a little cold water with ice cubes.  After a couple of minutes, remove softened gelatin sheets and press into a sieve to remove extra water.  Add the gelatin to the warm cream and stir to dissolve.  Pour the cream into individual panna-cotta molds and refrigerate for 3 to 4 hours
  2. 2
    For the Strawberry Purée
    Purée the strawberries in a blender.  Place them in a saucepan, add the sugar and place over a medium heat, stirring until the sugar dissolves.  Soften the gelatin sheet in a little cold water with ice cubes.  After a couple of minutes, remove softened gelatin and squeeze to remove any extra water.  Add the gelatin to the strawberry sauce and stir until the sauce has thickened.  Leave to cool.
