Ingredients

  1. 1/2 cups milk
  2. 1 cup sugar
  3. 1/2 orange, zest peeled in a strip and juiced
  4. 1/2 lemon, zest peeled in a strip and juiced
  5. 1/4 vanilla bean, split
  6. 4 sheets gelatin
  7. 3/4 cup live active cultured yogurt (no starch or gelatin types)
  8. 1 1/2 cups heavy cream, whipped
  9. 1 pint blueberries
  10. 2 tablespoons sugar
  11. 1 tablespoon orange juice
  12. 1 tablespoon lemon juice

Instructions

  1. In a saucepan, heat the milk, sugar, rinds (save the insides for the compote), and vanilla bean simmering until the sugar is dissolved.
  2. Meanwhile place the gelatin in enough cold water to submerge the gelatin completely, about 1 1/2 cups. Soak the gelatin until softened. Once soft, remove the gelatin from the water, squeezing out excess water. Add the gelatin to the hot liquid and stir to melt. Let cool slightly then stir in the yogurt. Strain the mixture into a clean bowl. Chill over an ice bath until it starts to thicken. Fold in the whipped cream. Pour into individual 4-ounce molds or ramekins, or a large mold or ring mold, and chill for 2 hours. When ready to serve, dip in hot water 10 seconds to remove from the molds and turn them out onto dessert plates.
  3. To make the compote, place the blueberries, sugar, orange juice and lemon juice in a saucepan and bring just to a boil. Stir the fruit once, turn off the heat and let it stew on its own for 5 minutes. Serve cold or at room temperature, spooned around the panna cotta.

We have made this recipe many times and it always turns out perfect. The combination of orange and lemon works together without too much of either. It’s a bit rich so I just used fresh strawberries instead of the compote. It was the ultimate dessert. This will certainly impress your friends.
