Panna cotta

Summer is arrived in Perugia!!!
Hot weather and blossoming roses!
So tonight we will celebrate the new season with a dinner with friends!
For dessert I'll prepare panna cotta with frutti di bosco (berries).
Here is the recipe, fast, simple, very tasty and fresh!
Let me know what do you think about it!

Ingredients:
½ l fresh cream
½ l milk
150 gr sugar
12 gr gelatine
1 tb spoon vanilla

For the fruit sauce:
450 gr of strawberries, blueberries, raspberries
100 gr sugar
or
Caramel:
250 gr sugar
half glass of water

In a saucepan combine the cream, milk, vanilla and sugar.


Let boil over low heat for 3 minutes.

Put the gelatine, if in foil, in cold water until it becomes soft, squeeze it and add to the milk.


If the gelatine is in powder put it directly in the hot milk.

Let the panna cotta chill a little before putting it in glass cups and in the fridge for at least 3 hours.


Serve the Panna cotta with a sauce made with strawberries, blueberries and raspberries boiled for with the sugar.


You can also serve it with caramel made with 250 gr of sugar cooked till gold. At this point turn off the gas and add half glass of water.
Let it get cool before pouring on panna cotta.
