Judith's style Panna Cotta with Strawberry sauce




When Judith came back from Italy she made us a very nice dinner to celebrate it. I really enjoyed everything: the homemade pesto, the different  types of pasta...but what I could not take out of my head since then is the Panna Cotta.  It is a very simple to prepare italian dessert but I had never taste it before.
Here I let you my version

INGREDIENTS

- 250 ml heavy cream (Crema de leche)
- 250 ml full cream milk
-  5 /6 flavorless gelatin sheets
-  1 vanilla pod *
- Fresh forest's fruits
- 150g icing sugar

PROCEDURE

1. Put the gelatin sheets in cold water to hydrate
2. In a saucepan slowly heat the milk and the heavy cream. When hot, add the vainilla pod and the sugar. Whisk gently until it starts to boil. Then take it out of the fire.
3. Add the gelatin sheets (previously drained) and whisk until incorporate
4. Divide the mixture into small bowls and let it cold down.
5. Once the temperature comes down a little bit, put the bowls in the fridge a few hours to harden the gelatin
6. Serve it with the forest fruits

-----------------
* It is not enough to put vanilla in boiling milk to get a nice flavor, to aromatize the milk with the vanilla you must prepare the pod in advance. With a sharp knife, cut the pod from up and down without making two pieces and open the pod with the fingers to show the seeds. Now you can add the opened pod to the milk
