Great recipe. Is double cream always used in Panna Cotta? I've had some that seemed extremely thin and a bit disappointing. I love a dessert with a bit of substance as well as a refreshing taste.
ReplyDeleteI always use double cream but you can cheat and used skimmed milk although its creamier with full cream milk.
DeleteYummy, I love pana cotta and your lemon pana cotta looks simply delicious! :) x
ReplyDeleteYum, I bet that tastes so good! I love lemon desserts.
ReplyDeleteI think panacotta is very under rated. I would serve this delicious recipe with a tuille biscuit or shortbread.

ReplyDeletePanna Cotta is one of the only puddings I actually like. Your version looks heavenly :)
ReplyDeleteThis is my kind of desert! Definitely something I would choose when eating out but I'm always a bit scared to make at home for fear of it not setting.
ReplyDeleteOh yummy! I do adore panna cotta, but haven't as yet made it myself!
ReplyDeleteI love panacotta, but I've never tried using agar agar to set. Is it easy to do?
ReplyDeleteOoh this is fantastic Nayna. I've been wanting to try making a vegetarian version of panna cotta but I've never actually used agar agar before and wasn't sure how it would work. Will give this a go. Thank you.
