Saffron Panna Cotta
Panna Cotta is an easy Italian no-bake dessert made with heavy cream, milk, sugar, vanilla, and gelatin. I just modified the traditional Panna Cotta recipe by adding some ground saffron, and it turned out perfect and delicious.

Yield: Serves 4
- 1 1/3 cups heavy cream 35%
- 1 cup milk
- 1/4 teaspoon ground saffron
- 2 teaspoons unflavoured gelatin
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/3 cup sugar
- slivered pistachios for garnish
Dissolve ground saffron in 2 tablespoons of boiling water and set aside (click for How to Use Saffron).
In a small bowl, sprinkle gelatin over 5 tablespoons cold water and let stand 5-6 minutes.
Meanwhile combine cream, milk, sugar and dissolved saffron in a small saucepan over medium heat, stirring until sugar is dissolved.
Remove the saucepan from heat. Add vanilla extract and gelatin. Whisk together until thoroughly incorporated.
Pour into individual serving dishes and chill for at least 2 hours or until set. Garnish the Saffron Panna Cotta with pistachios and serve.
