Recipe for Honey Pana Cotta
Print-friendly page.
In this simple but elegant dessert, you can truly taste the essence of what makes Dr. Pescia’s honeys so unique. The sweet character we expect from honey is nearly secondary to the almost savory, earthy-floral flavor that the honey infuses into the cream. Other distinctive honeys can be used in the place of those from Dr. Pescia.
Ingredients:
1 envelope (1 tablespoon) powdered gelatin
2 cups heavy cream
1/3 cup Dr. Pescia wild heather or sulla honey
1 teaspoon finely grated orange zest (preferably blood orange)
2 cups heavy cream
1/3 cup Dr. Pescia wild heather or sulla honey
1 teaspoon finely grated orange zest (preferably blood orange)
Directions:
Sprinkle the powdered gelatin over 1/3 cup cool water in a small dish; set aside to soften.
Warm the cream in a medium saucepan over medium heat, just to the point that it begins to steam but not boil. Stir the honey into the warm cream until it is fully dissolved and take the pan from the heat. Add the softened gelatin and stir until it is fully melted.
Ladle the mixture into six 4-ounce ramekins or other small dishes. Let sit until cooled to room temperature. Sprinkle the tops with the orange zest, cover the dishes with plastic wrap, and refrigerate until set, at least 2 hours.
To serve, unmold the panna cottas onto small plates.
