BLOOD ORANGE PANNA COTTA

Steps:

• FOR THE PANNA COTTA: Pour gelatin into a small bowl and moisten with 1 T cool water. Let bloom for 1 or 2 minutes. In a small saucepan, combine half of the blood orange juice with the sugar on medium heat, and bring just to a simmer. Add gelatin and the finely-grated zest. Remove from heat when gelatin fully dissolved. Set aside.
• In a medium bowl, combine remaining orange juice with creme fraiche and buttermilk. Strain hot juice-gelatin liquid into the bowl, and whisk gently to mix evenly. Portion into ramekins. Refrigerate and allow to set, about 4 to 6 hours, or overnight.
• FOR THE GRANITE: Pour orange juice into a large mixing bowl. Combine lemongrass, zest strips, sugar, and water in a saucepot and bring to boil. Remove from heat and strain into the orange juice. Stir. Pour into a large freezer-safe storage container, cover and refrigerate. When cool, freeze overnight. When solid, scrape with a fork into ice flakes. Serve or store in the freezer in a sealed container.
• FOR THE PISTACHIOS: On a sheet pan, toss pistachios in just enough confectioners' sugar to lightly coat. Combine water, sugar, and salt in heavy-bottomed skillet on high heat. Cook until sugar melts and lightly caramelizes to light brown (about 140 Celsius). Add the pistachios and mix vigorously to coat every nut with sugar mixture. Keep cooking and stirring until the nuts caramelize. Meanwhile, line the sheet pan with parchment or a Silpat. Spread nuts on the Silpat or parchment-lined sheet tray to cool.
• ORANGE SUPREMES: With a sharp knife, cut the top and bottom off each orange. Trim rind and skin from sides, following the contour of the orange. Cut orange into segments by making a vertical cut on either side of each segment's white stripe. To serve, place 3 to 4 supreme slices on top of each panna cotta ramekin. Scrape 1 to 2 T of granite ice flakes from the block with a fork and add over supremes. Garnish with sea salt and a few caramelized pistachios.

ORANGE PANNA COTTA

Steps:

• In a saucepan, over medium heat, combine the heavy cream, vanilla bean, seeds and orange zest. Bring the liquid to a simmer and cook until it's reduced to 1 1/2 cups.
• In the meantime place the gelatin sheets in a bowl and cover with cold water, about 5 minutes. Pour off water and squeeze any excess water from the softened gelatin sheets. Remove the cream mixture from heat. Whisk in the confectioners' sugar until fully incorporated. Whisk in the softened gelatin sheets, milk, and orange juice and let stand for 3 minutes. Stir to ensure that the gelatin sheets are well dissolved. Strain through a very fine sieve into a medium mixing bowl.
• Place mixture in an ice bath, stirring continually for about 3 minutes to allow it to thicken slightly. Gently stir in half of the whipped heavy cream and then gently fold in the remaining cream. Divide the mixture into the individual molds, filling the molds 1/4-inch from the top. Refrigerate for 1 hour, or until the panna cottas have cooled completely and the gelatin has set.
• To unmold the panna cotta, take the molds directly from the refrigerator and carefully dip them in hot water for 15 seconds. Run a sharp knife around the sides of the mold. Invert the molds over a plate and serve immediately with Sugared Champagne Grapes.
• Sugared Champagne Grapes:
• Whisk together the powdered egg white and water until frothy and light. Brush the champagne grapes lightly with the egg white mixture and roll in 1/2 cup of the sugar. Place the sugared grapes on a bed of the remaining sugar and dry at room temperature for several hours.

BLOOD ORANGE PANNA COTTA

Steps:

• Pour 1 cup juice into medium saucepan; sprinkle gelatin over. Let stand 15 minutes.
• Stir gelatin mixture over low heat until gelatin dissolves, 1 to 2 minutes. Add 1/2 cup sugar and 5 teaspoons orange peel; stir until sugar dissolves, 1 to 2 minutes longer. Strain into medium bowl, pressing on solids. Discard solids in strainer. Cool juice mixture 10 minutes. Whisk yogurt, cream, and lemon juice into orange juice mixture until smooth. Divide among six small goblets. Chill until set, at least 4 hours ahead.
• Stir 1 1/3 cups orange juice, 1/4 cup sugar, 2 teaspoons orange peel, and cardamom in medium saucepan over low heat until sugar dissolves. Increase heat and boil until reduced to 6 tablespoons, 16 to 17 minutes. Strain syrup into small bowl; chill.
• Spoon some of syrup over each panna cotta and serve.

VANILLA PANNA COTTA WITH CARAMELISED ORANGE

Steps:

• Place the gelatine and milk in a pan, then leave it to one side to soak. Meanwhile, place the orange zest, vanilla pods and sugar in a pan. Add 800ml of the cream, then bring to the boil. Simmer until the mixture is reduced by one-third. While the cream is reducing, remove the gelatine from the milk, set aside, then warm the milk. When it is warm, add the soaked gelatine and stir until completely dissolved. Add to the warm cream, pass through a sieve, then leave to cool.
• Lightly whip the remaining cream, then fold into the setting mixture. Pour the mixture into a 1-litre pudding bowl, then place in the fridge to set for at least 5 hrs.
• While the panna cotta is setting, make the sauce for the orange salad. Tip the sugar into a non-stick pan, then place on the heat to cook down to a caramel. Pour in the Grand Marnier and orange juice - this will make the caramel harden, so just simmer on a low heat, stirring, until it's dissolved to a syrupy consistency. Remove from the heat.
• Take the panna cotta out of the fridge, slide a knife around the edge of the bowl and dip very briefly in hot water to loosen. Tip the panna cotta into the middle of a plate, then arrange the orange segments around it. Spoon the orangey sauce over the panna cotta and oranges, then scatter over the zest.

BURNT ORANGE PANNA COTTA

Steps:

• Sprinkle gelatin over milk in a small bowl and let stand 1 minute to soften.
• Whisk together confectioners sugar, salt, and 1 cup heavy cream.
• Cook granulated sugar in a dry small heavy saucepan over moderate heat, undisturbed, until it begins to melt. Continue to cook, stirring occasionally with a fork, until sugar is melted into a golden caramel. Stir in 1 1/2 teaspoons zest and cook, stirring, until zest is toasted and fragrant, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Stir cream mixture and carefully add to caramel (it will bubble and harden). Cook over moderately low heat, stirring, until caramel is dissolved.
• Stir in gelatin mixture and remaining teaspoon zest until gelatin is dissolved. Stir in orange juice, then let stand just until cooled to room temperature. Pour through a fine sieve into a medium bowl.
• Beat remaining 1/2 cup heavy cream with an electric mixer until it just holds soft peaks. Whisk sour cream in another bowl until smooth. Fold whipped cream into sour cream, then fold into caramel mixture until combined well.
• Spoon into molds and chill until firm, at least 8 hours.
• Dip molds in hot water 2 or 3 seconds and run a thin knife around edge of molds to help release panna cotta. Invert onto dessert plates and let stand at room temperature 20 minutes.
• While panna cotta is standing, remove peel and white pith from oranges with a sharp knife. Holding oranges over a bowl to catch juices, cut sections free from membranes. Squeeze juice from membranes into bowl and coarsely chop orange sections.
• Just before serving, spoon orange pieces and juice over desserts.
