Time 25m

Yield 8 Servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 cups heavy cream
2 cups Half and Half
1/2 cup Sugar
1 vanilla bean, scraped
2 teaspoons Meyer Lemon zest
Canola Oil
2 packets powdered gelatin
6 tablespoons Meyer Lemon juice

Steps:

  • Preparation Heat the heavy cream, half and half, sugar and vanilla bean in a saucepan over medium heat until the sugar has dissolved. Add the lemon zest. Lightly oil eight custard cups with a neutral-tasting oil. (I use canola). Sprinkle the gelatin over the Meyer lemon juice in a medium-sized bowl and let stand 5 to 10 minutes until the gelatin has become "mushy" or bloomed. Pour the very warm Panna Cotta mixture over the gelatin and stir until the gelatin is completely dissolved. Divide the Panna Cotta mixture into the prepared cups, then chill them until firm, which will take at least two hours but I let them stand at least four hours. Run a sharp knife around the edge of each Panna Cotta and unmold each onto a serving plate, and garnish with citrus supremes.

Editor's Note: The next time you plan a dinner party, end the meal on the right note by whipping up this Meyer Lemon Panna Cotta. The delightful lemon dessert recipe checks all the boxes for the busy home cook. This lemon panna cotta recipe is easy to make, has fewer than 10 ingredients, can be made in advance, and is a no-bake dessert, too. Your guests will love being served this lemon panna cotta; after a heavy meal, they will love a dessert that's both understated and full of flavor. If you're planning to make this lemon panna cotta, then take a look at the recipe author's suggestion for wine pairing, which follows the instructions. While flan and panna cotta have similar pudding-like textures, they're made a little differently. Both are cooked on the stove, but flan uses eggs as a thickener, while panna cotta, or "cooked cream," relies on gelatin. Italians, myself included, are partial to panna cotta, but I enjoy mixing things up a little and add Meyer lemon juice, which gives the dessert a nice zing. Serve it with a slice of candied lemon peel on the side.

1 envelope (2 teaspoons) unflavored gelatin
1/2 cup sugar
1 cup whipping cream
1 cup Meyer lemon juice (4-6 Meyer lemons)

Combine sugar and 1/2 cup of water in a saucepan; bring to a simmer and stir until sugar dissolves. Turn off the heat and add the gelatin mixture, stirring until gelatin dissolves.

Pour mixture into a 5-cup bowl or mold or individual ramekins coated slightly with canola oil. Cover and chill at least six hours or overnight. Serve with Glen Novinger's loquat jelly.

Yield makes 8

Number Of Ingredients 10

Marmalade:
3 large lemons
3/4 cup sugar
Panna Cotta:
1 cup whole milk, divided
2 teaspoons unflavored gelatin
2 1/2 cups heavy whipping cream
1/2 cup sugar
Peel from 1 lemon (removed with a vegetable peeler)
1 vanilla bean, split lengthwise

Steps:

  • For marmalade:
  • Using a knife, cut peel and white pith, end to end, from lemons. Juice enough flesh to measure ⅓ cup; reserve. Bring a large saucepan of water to a boil. Add peel; boil for 5 minutes. Drain; repeat 2 more times. Let peel cool; slice lengthwise into thin strips, then crosswise in half.
  • In a small heavy saucepan over medium heat, stir sugar, reserved 1/3 cup lemon juice, and 1/4 cup water until sugar dissolves. Add peel, bring to a simmer, and cook until mixture is reduced to ⅔ cup and an instant-read thermometer reads 225°F about 10 minutes. DO AHEAD: Can be made up to 2 weeks ahead. Cover and chill.
  • For panna cotta:
  • Pour 1/2 cup milk into a medium bowl; sprinkle gelatin over. Let sit until gelatin softens, about 15 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, combine cream, sugar, lemon peel, and remaining 1/2 cup milk in a large saucepan. Scrape vanilla seeds from bean into saucepan; add bean. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, whisking until sugar dissolves. Remove from heat; cover and let steep for 10 minutes.
  • Bring cream mixture back to a simmer. Add gelatin mixture and stir until dissolved. Strain. Divide among eight 3/4-cup ramekins. Chill uncovered until panna cotta is set, at least 6 hours. DO AHEAD: Can be made 2 days ahead. Cover and keep chilled.
  • Using a small sharp knife, cut around edges of each panna cotta. Place a small serving plate atop each ramekin and invert, allowing panna cotta to settle onto plate. Serve with marmalade.

Tips:

  • To achieve the best flavor, use fresh Meyer lemons whenever possible.
  • If you don't have Meyer lemons, you can substitute regular lemons, but the flavor will be slightly different.
  • Be sure to zest the lemons before juicing them, as the zest contains a lot of flavor.
  • For a smoother panna cotta, strain the mixture before pouring it into the molds.
  • If you don't have individual panna cotta molds, you can use a large mold and cut the panna cotta into slices to serve.
  • Panna cotta can be made ahead of time and refrigerated for up to 3 days.
  • To serve, top the panna cotta with fresh berries, citrus segments, or a drizzle of honey.

Conclusion:

Meyer lemon panna cotta is a delicious and refreshing dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences.
