A silky, creamy panna cotta infused with subtle rose water and topped with fresh strawberry puree and edible gold flakes, perfect for elegant desserts and special occasions.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups (480 ml) heavy cream
  • 1 cup (240 ml) whole milk
  • ½ cup (100 g) granulated sugar
  • 2 ½ tsp (about 7 g) gelatin powder
  • ¼ cup (60 ml) cold water
  • 1 cup (150 g) fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
  • 1 tsp rose water
  • 1 tsp lemon juice
  • Edible gold flakes (as needed)

Instructions

  1. Sprinkle 2 ½ teaspoons of gelatin powder over ¼ cup of cold water in a small bowl. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes to soften and swell.
  2. In a medium saucepan, combine 2 cups heavy cream, 1 cup whole milk, and ½ cup granulated sugar. Warm over medium heat, whisking occasionally, until sugar dissolves and mixture is hot but not boiling (around 170°F or 77°C).
  3. Remove the cream mixture from heat and stir in the softened gelatin until completely dissolved.
  4. Add 1 teaspoon rose water to the mixture and gently whisk to combine.
  5. Divide the mixture evenly among 6 ramekins or small glasses (approx. ½ cup / 120 ml each). Let them cool slightly at room temperature for 15 minutes before transferring to the fridge.
  6. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight until set with a gentle jiggle.
  7. Meanwhile, blend 1 cup hulled strawberries with 1 teaspoon lemon juice until smooth. For a silky finish, strain through a fine mesh sieve to remove seeds.
  8. Spoon strawberry puree over the set panna cotta just before serving. Garnish with edible gold flakes.

Notes

Bloom gelatin properly in cold water before adding to hot cream mixture to ensure smooth setting. Heat cream and milk gently without boiling to avoid curdling. Chill panna cotta for at least 4 hours or overnight for best texture. Use a ladle for even portions and wipe edges before chilling for a clean presentation. For dairy-free version, substitute cream and milk with full-fat coconut milk and gelatin with agar agar.
