- 1 unflavored gelatin
- 2 cup half-and-half
- 1/3 cup granulated sugar
- 2 Earl Grey tea
- lemon peel
Let's Cook
-
Step 1.
In a small bowl, sprinkle the packet of unflavored gelatin over ¼ cup cold water. Let sit without stirring until softened, about 5 minutes.
-
Step 2.
In a medium saucepan, combine 2 cups half-and-half and ⅓ cup granulated sugar. Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar is dissolved and the mixture just starts to steam (do not let it boil). Remove from heat.
-
Step 3.
Submerge 2 Earl Grey tea bags and the lemon peel strips in the hot half-and-half mixture. Cover the saucepan and let steep for 5 minutes.
-
Step 4.
Remove the lemon peel and tea bags from the mixture, squeezing the tea bags gently to extract any remaining liquid before discarding them.
-
Step 5.
Add the softened gelatin to the warm tea mixture and stir until fully dissolved. If the mixture has cooled for more than 5 minutes, warm it over medium heat until it just starts to steam again before adding the gelatin.
-
Step 6.
Pour the panna cotta mixture into 6 teacups or ramekins. Chill uncovered in the refrigerator until set, at least 4 hours.
