Making Yogurt Panna Cotta
Gelatin gives panna cotta its characteristic bounce, and gelatin needs time to set. So begin making this recipe the day before you plan to serve it.
You'll start first by softening, or blooming, your gelatin in a bowl with warm water. Next, you'll warm the cream and honey together, and then whisk in the gelatin. Then, you'll need to incorporate the gelatin into your yogurt.
So, just whisk that warmed cream, honey and gelatin straight into your yogurt. Then pour it into individual ramekins, and allow them to chill in the fridge until set. Top your yogurt panna cotta with honey-roasted strawberries (or anything else you like) and serve cold.
