Instructions

  1. Step 1: In a small bowl, sprinkle 2 tsp unflavored gelatin over 3 tbsp cold water and let bloom for 5 minutes until gelatin softens.
  2. Step 2: In a medium saucepan, combine 2 cups heavy cream, 1 cup whole milk, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, and 1 tsp vanilla bean paste. Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally until sugar dissolves and mixture is hot but not boiling (about 5 minutes).
  3. Step 3: Remove cream mixture from heat and whisk in the bloomed gelatin until fully dissolved and smooth.
  4. Step 4: Pour the panna cotta mixture evenly into 6 ramekins or dessert glasses and refrigerate for at least 4 hours until set.
  5. Step 5: For blueberry sauce, blend 1 cup fresh blueberries with 1 tbsp lemon juice and 1 tbsp powdered sugar until smooth; strain through a fine mesh sieve to remove skins.
  6. Step 6: Before serving, spoon 2 tbsp blueberry sauce over each panna cotta and garnish with a few fresh sliced strawberries for a striking patriotic presentation.
