Instructions

How to Make Panna Cotta with Robiola Cheese

  • Whisk the Robiola cheese and the yogurt in a bowl to reduce them to a thick, compact cream.

  • Add the sugar and stir until it is fully incorporated into the mixture.

  • Meanwhile, put the gelatin in cold water to soften.

  • After fifteen minutes, squeeze the juice of one lemon and heat half of it on fire.

  • Dissolve the gelatin in the warm lemon juice and when it will be perfectly melt add the liquid to the Robiola and yogurt cream.

  • Pour the cream in single-dose containers such as ramekins or custard cups and put them to cool in the refrigerator for at least 3-4 hours.

  • When ready to serve, put the berries into a saucepan with the remaining lemon juice and a tablespoon of sugar.

  • Put the saucepan over medium heat for a few minutes always stirring, until you get a thickish sauce.

  • Serve then the panna cotta with the berry sauce and chocolate chips. If you don’t have much time, replace the berry sauce with a spoon of mixed berry organic jam.

Our tip

To remove the panna cotta from the aluminum molds, it is advisable to dip them for a few seconds in a container with boiling water: the thermal shock will facilitate the separation of the dessert from the mold.
