Basil panna cotta dessert
Few things are more Italian than panna cotta and basil, so after falling in love with transalpine gastronomy on a trip to its Riviera, I thought it would be a fitting tribute to prepare this unusual dessert recipe.

Ingredients
- Liquid cream to assemble 400 ml
- Sugar 40 g
- Gelatin in sheets 4
- Fresh basil, a handful of leaves
Instructions
- As with any panna cotta, we begin by soaking the gelatin sheets in cold water. We leave them to hydrate for 10 minutes while we prepare the cream
- In a small saucepan, heat the cream, sugar, and basil leaves together, stirring frequently. When the cream reaches a boil, remove the basil leaves and stir in the gelatin.
- Finally, we divide the cream among four containers and allow it to warm before storing it in the fridge for at least four hours before serving with basil leaves.
