Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Heat cream and milk in a small saucepan over medium until it steams — do not boil. Remove from heat.

  2. Step 2

    Stir in sugar and vanilla until sugar dissolves completely, about 1 minute.

  3. Step 3

    Sprinkle gelatin over 3 tablespoons cold water. Let sit 1 minute, then stir into the hot cream mixture until fully dissolved.

  4. Step 4

    Pour into four serving glasses or bowls. Refrigerate until set and chilled, 12–15 minutes.

  5. Step 5

    While panna cotta chills, slice strawberries and toss with honey. Let macerate for 5 minutes.

  6. Step 6

    Top each panna cotta with strawberries and their juice. Serve cold.
