Mugwort Panna Cotta

Spread the love

Ingredients for 8 servings:

  • 400 ml sweet cream
  • 200 ml milk
  • 30 g mugwort, dried
  • 3 tbsp, heaped sugar
  • 2 ½ sheets of gelatin

Instructions

Working time approx. 10 minutes; Rest time approx. 5 hours; Cooking/baking time approx. 10 minutes; Total time approx. 5 hours 20 minutes

as a side dish to a cold starter or as part of a combined dessert

Heat the milk and cream together with the dried mugwort to boiling point. Then remove the pan from the heat and let the mixture steep, covered, for two hours. Pour the liquid through a fine sieve, collecting the liquid and squeezing out the mugwort. Heat the flavored cream mixture with the sugar again to 70 degrees Celsius and dissolve the gelatin (soaked according to the package instructions) in it. Pour the cream into dessert molds and refrigerate for a few hours to set. As a standalone dessert, the taste of mugwort panna cotta can be a bit off-putting. However, it goes very well with cold appetizers such as smoked duck breast, or it can provide a lovely contrast when served with sweet dessert components or fruit ice cream.
