Rose And Yogurt Panna Cotta Recipes

YOGURT PANNA COTTA WITH ROSE-SCENTED RASPBERRIES

Steps:

• For the rose-scented raspberries: Place half of the raspberries into a glass bowl and crush them with a fork. Gradually stir in the sugar and taste for sweetness. Gently fold in the remaining raspberries and the rosewater, until just combined. Chill the sweetened raspberry mixture until ready to serve.
• For the panna cotta: In a medium saucepan, combine the heavy cream and sugar and heat over medium heat. Using the point or tip of a knife, scrape the vanilla bean seeds into the saucepan before adding the pod. Stir the cream mixture until the sugar is completely dissolved, then bring the mixture to a brief boil before removing from the heat.
• Soak the gelatin sheets in cold water until soft, about 15 minutes. Squeeze out the excess water, drop the sheets into the hot cream mixture and whisk until gelatin is completely dissolved. Add the yogurt, and continue whisking until the mixture is smooth. In a fine mesh sieve placed over a medium bowl, strain the yogurt mixture. Discard the vanilla bean pod. Divide the yogurt mixture among 4 (4 ounce) ramekins. Cover the ramekins with plastic wrap, and chill until the desserts have set, at least 3 hours. Place spoonfuls of the rose-scented raspberries over the top of each ramekin for garnish and serve immediately.

RASPBERRY-ROSE PANNA COTTA

Steps:

• Puree the raspberries in a food processor until completely smooth. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve into a medium bowl, discarding the solids. Add the gelatin to the raspberry puree and stir; set aside to bloom for at least 7 minutes.
• Combine the raspberry-gelatin mixture, heavy cream and sugar in a medium saucepan over medium-low heat. Cook, stirring occasionally with a rubber spatula, until the sugar has dissolved completely, about 5 minutes. (Do not use a whisk.) Strain the custard through a fine-mesh sieve into a large bowl, pressing it through with a rubber spatula. Stir in the lemon juice.
• Place two 6-cavity silicone rose molds (about 2 3/4 by 1 1/2 inches per cavity) on a baking sheet. Pour the custard into the cavities, filling them to the top. Cover and freeze overnight.
• Sprinkle a few rose petals on each plate. Unmold the frozen panna cottas onto the plates, then let thaw completely before serving.

HONEY-YOGURT PANNA COTTA

Steps:

• Place cream and sugar in a medium saucepan. With a paring knife, split vanilla bean lengthwise; scrape out seeds, and add to cream along with empty pod (if using vanilla extract, add to yogurt mixture in step 4).
• Bring cream to a boil, stirring to dissolve sugar. Cover pan, remove from heat, and set aside to steep, at least 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, place 1/2 cup cold water in a small bowl, and sprinkle gelatin over water; set aside to soften, at least 5 minutes. In a large bowl, whisk yogurt, honey, and salt until combined; set aside.
• Return cream to a boil. Remove from heat, and immediately stir in softened gelatin until dissolved. Pour mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into yogurt-honey mixture; mix until combined.
• Divide mixture among eight 4- to 6-ounce ramekins. Chill until firm, at least 4 hours and up to 2 days.
• To serve, unmold each panna cotta from its ramekin: Run a paring knife around the top inner edge of ramekin, then dip bottom of ramekin in a bowl of boiling water for 10 seconds. Invert ramekin onto serving plate. Holding ramekin tightly to plate, shake firmly to release panna cotta. Drizzle with honey before serving.
