# Ingredients:
→ Dairy and Flavorings
01 -
180 ml whole milk
02 -
480 ml heavy cream
03 -
50 g granulated sugar
04 -
3 sheets gelatin
05 -
0.5 teaspoon vanilla extract
06 -
60 ml loose leaf Earl Grey tea
# Instructions:
01 -
If you intend to unmold, lightly grease the inner surface of the serving glasses with a thin layer of vegetable oil and wipe out excess with paper towel, leaving a fine coating.
02 -
Submerge gelatin sheets in cold water until thoroughly softened. Set aside until needed.
03 -
In a medium saucepan, combine whole milk, heavy cream, and granulated sugar. Heat over medium flame until the mixture reaches a gentle simmer, stirring occasionally. Do not allow to boil. Remove from heat.
04 -
Gently squeeze excess water from the softened gelatin sheets and add to the warm dairy mixture. Stir continuously until gelatin completely dissolves.
05 -
Add vanilla extract and loose leaf Earl Grey tea to the saucepan. Stir briefly, then let steep for 10 to 15 minutes to fully infuse flavors.
06 -
Strain the infused mixture through a fine-mesh sieve to remove tea leaves. Evenly distribute the liquid into prepared molds or cups.
07 -
Transfer molds to the refrigerator and chill for a minimum of 4 hours or ideally overnight until panna cotta is firm.
08 -
To unmold, briefly dip the base of each mold in hot water for approximately 5 seconds. Run a thin knife around the edge before inverting onto a serving plate.
# Notes:
01 -
For a smoother finish, avoid boiling the dairy mixture to prevent curdling. Adjust steeping time for preferred tea strength.
