Rosewater Panna Cotta with Blueberries
December 15, 2010
I was flipping through Donna Hay ~ Dec2010/Jan 2011 magazine, and this Panna Cotta caught my attention...
Why?
Reason no 1 ~ I have one (1) blueberry plant growing happily in my backyard. The plant has been very kind.. eventhough it was only a year old... it has given me quite a good yield... It must have been happy and contented in my garden...

Reason no 2 ~ Miss E loves blueberries (and she often say it her 'blubberries'...) and I always stock up boxes of frozen blueberries in freezer for her convenience (and mine....
Reason no 3 ~ I was intrigued by the combinations of diary products with rose water...
I'll go no further than 3... before everyone get bored and started to (yawn)
Fresh blueberries and a single rose flower from my garden... (frozen blueberries in a bowl) |
But ...I tweaked her recipe just a teeny weeny bit... (Donna Hay's version ~ in brackets). I do not wish to waste 100ml of buttermilk.... it still turn out delicious eventhough with extra buttermilk, less cream and additional full cream milk... I omitted the blueberry jam as I have this gorgeous Blueberries Velvet toppings that I purchased from Denmark (in Western Australia ... not Denmark ~ Europe) .. to go with it...
Recipe:
600 ml buttermilk (DH ~ 2 cups or 500ml)300 ml light cream (DH ~ 2 cups or 500ml)100 ml full cream milk (DH ~ not applicable)1 cup icing sugar1 tablespoon rosewater1 tablespoon gelatine1/3 cup of waterfrozen blueberriesBlueberry Velvet toppings from Blue Eden
- Mix gelatine and water and put it aside.
- Place the buttermilk, cream, sugar and milk in the saucepan over medium heat. Stir until sugar dissolved.
- Add gelatine mixture and keep stirring until gelatine dissolved (another 3 minutes). Strain and allow to cool.
- Pour into dessert glass or container.
- Refrigerate for 3-4 hours or overnight until set.
