Strawberry Tarragon Panna Cotta Food

STRAWBERRY PANNA COTTA

Steps:

• For the panna cotta, put the gelatine leaves in a small bowl of cold water to soften - this will take about 5 mins. Meanwhile, pour the cream, milk and sugar into a pan, split the vanilla pod, scrape out the seeds and add, along with the pod, to the cream mixture. Heat gently until hot, but not bubbling. Remove the gelatine leaves from the water, squeeze out any excess liquid then add, one at a time, to the hot cream. Stir until dissolved. Leave to stand for 20-30 mins until cooled - the vanilla pods should be suspended in the liquid by this point. Strain the mixture through a sieve into 6 serving glasses, then chill for at least 3 hrs.
• Toss the strawberries with the cornflour and sugar in a saucepan. Place over a medium heat and cook for 4-5 mins, until the released juices thicken and the strawberries soften. Set aside to cool. Once completely cooled, top the set panna cottas with the strawberry mixture. Chill until ready to serve.

PANNA COTTA WITH BALSAMIC STRAWBERRIES

Steps:

• In a small bowl, sprinkle the gelatin on 1 1/2 tablespoons of cold water. Stir and set aside for 10 minutes to allow the gelatin to dissolve.
• Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, whisk together 3/4 cup of the cream, the yogurt, vanilla extract, and vanilla bean seeds. Heat the remaining 3/4 cup of cream and the 1/3 cup of sugar in a small saucepan and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Off the heat, add the softened gelatin to the hot cream and stir to dissolve. Pour the hot cream-gelatin mixture into the cold cream-yogurt mixture and stir to combine. Pour into 4 (6 to 8-ounce) ramekins or custard cups and refrigerate uncovered until cold. When the panna cottas are thoroughly chilled, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.
• Combine the strawberries, balsamic vinegar, 1 tablespoon sugar, and pepper 30 minutes to 1 hour before serving. Set aside at room temperature.
• To serve, run a small knife around each dessert in the ramkein and dip the bottom of each ramekin quickly in a bowl of hot tap water. Invert each ramekin onto a dessert plate and surround the panna cotta with strawberries. Dust lightly with freshly grated lemon zest and serve.

STRAWBERRIES AND CREAM PANNA COTTA

Steps:

• Arrange 8 small (4-ounce) silicone molds or 4-ounce ramekins or an 8-inch round silicone mold on a rimmed baking sheet. Make room for the baking sheet in your refrigerator.
• If using gelatin sheets, soak them in a bowl of cold water for about 10 minutes. If using powdered gelatin, place 3 tablespoons of cold water in a small bowl, sprinkle the gelatin over the surface and let sit for 5 minutes.
• Put the cream, milk, 1/3 cup sugar, 1/4 teaspoon salt, vanilla bean and seeds in a large saucepan and cook over medium heat until simmering, about 5 minutes; do not boil.
• If using soaked gelatin sheets, squeeze out the excess water. Whisk the bloomed gelatin into the cream mixture until completely dissolved, about 3 minutes. Add the white chocolate, remove the saucepan from the heat and whisk until the chocolate completely melts and the mixture is smooth, about 2 minutes. Pour the mixture into the prepared silicone molds and allow to cool at room temperature, about 1 hour. Once cooled, refrigerate the panna cotta until cold and set, about 4 hours.
• Put 1 pound of the strawberries, the remaining 1/2 cup sugar, the Champagne and a pinch of salt in a blender and puree until smooth. Transfer to a large nonstick skillet and bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, about 5 minutes. Reduce to medium heat and cook, stirring occasionally, until thick and syrupy, about 15 minutes. Add the orange zest, remove from the heat and let sit until cool, about 15 minutes. Remove and discard the zest, transfer the syrup to a medium bowl and chill until ready to serve.
• When ready to serve, dip the chilled silicone molds in warm water to loosen each panna cotta and invert them onto plates. Pour the chilled strawberry syrup over the top of each panna cotta and serve with remaining quartered strawberries.

ROASTED STRAWBERRY PANNA COTTA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Place 6 cups strawberries and 6 tarragon sprigs in 13x9x2-inch glass baking dish. Sprinkle with 2 tablespoons sugar and lemon juice; toss to coat. Roast uncovered until strawberries are soft and syrup forms, stirring occasionally, about 20 minutes; cool 30 minutes.
• Strain strawberry mixture into medium bowl, pressing on fruit to release as much pulp as possible; discard seeds in strainer. Transfer 1 1/2 cups strawberry purée to another medium bowl; mix in crème fraîche. Reserve any remaining purée for another use.
• Place 2 1/2 tablespoons cold water in small saucepan; sprinkle gelatin over. Let stand until gelatin softens, about 15 minutes.
• Scrape seeds from vanilla bean halves into another small saucepan; add bean. Add cream and remaining 1/2 cup sugar. Bring to simmer over medium heat, stirring until sugar dissolves. Remove cream mixture from heat; add gelatin mixture and stir to dissolve. Cool slightly. Stir cream-gelatin mixture into strawberry cream. Strain into large measuring cup; divide among six 3/4-cup ramekins or small goblets. Cover and chill until panna cotta is set, at least 6 hours and up to 1 day. Garnish with whole strawberries and remaining tarragon sprigs.

STRAWBERRY & TARRAGON PANNA COTTA

Steps:

• Put the cream, milk and 4 good tarragon sprigs in a medium pan and slowly bring to the boil, about 10 mins. Set aside to cool. Mash the tarragon into the cream every now and again.
• Meanwhile, soak the gelatine in a bowl of cold water until completely soft. Lightly grease the insides of 6 x 150ml pudding moulds or, if you don't want to turn out the puddings, just have 6 teacups or ramekins ready on a flat tray.
• Stir the caster sugar into the pan, bring the cream back to a simmer, then pass it through a sieve into a jug. Squeeze out as much water as possible from the gelatine, then stir it into the hot liquid until dissolved. Pour the mixture into the moulds, cool for 30 mins at room temperature, then cover and chill in the fridge for 6 hrs or overnight.
• Blend half the strawberries with the icing sugar in a food processor until smooth. Pass through a sieve, then taste for sweetness. Toss the rest of the berries into the sauce. When ready to serve, dip the panna cotta moulds in hot water for 3-4 secs before turning onto plates. Add a little chopped tarragon to the strawberry sauce, then spoon over or around the wobbly creams. Garnish each panna cotta with a tarragon sprig, if you like.

STRAWBERRY-LEMON PANNA COTTAS

Steps:

• Put 1/4 cup cold water in a small bowl. Sprinkle the gelatin over the water, stir and let sit until the gelatin has softened, about 5 minutes.
• Stir the half-and-half and sugar in a small saucepan over medium heat until the sugar melts and the half-and-half is hot and begins to steam. Stir in the softened gelatin, lemon zest, vanilla and a large pinch of salt. Make sure all the gelatin dissolves.
• Divide the mixture evenly into 6 small glass bowls, and let cool for a few minutes. Wrap and refrigerate until chilled and set (the panna cottas will be jiggly), about 4 hours. (They can be made a day ahead and refrigerated.)
• Fill a medium bowl with very hot water. Working with one panna cotta at a time, dip a bowl almost completely in the water, and hold it there for about 1 minute. Dry off the bowl, then invert it onto a small serving plate. Repeat with the remaining panna cottas. (They can be unmolded and inverted onto the serving plates up to 3 hours before serving.) Top each with a mound of strawberries, and drizzle with honey.

VANILLA PANNA COTTA

Steps:

• Add the sheets of gelatine to a bowl of cold water and soak for 5 mins.
• Pour the milk and cream into a saucepan with the sugar and vanilla seeds (to scrape the seeds out of the pod, use the back of a knife). Stir to combine and bring to a simmer, then remove from the heat. Take the gelatine out of the cold water and squeeze out the excess, then add to the milk mixture. Stir until completely dissolved. Tip into four ramekins and place in the fridge to set for at least a couple of hours.
• To serve, turn each ramekin upside-down onto a serving plate. If the panna cotta won't drop out, carefully dip the ramekin in a bowl of warm water to loosen it. Serve with a drizzle of strawberry compote and sliced fresh strawberries.
