Ingredients
2 cups heavy cream
1/2 cup caster sugar
1 packet unflavored gelatin
3 tbsp cold water
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 cup whole milk
3 tbsp Sticky Balsamic Premium Fig
2 tbsp honey
1 tbsp water
1 tsp cornstarch
1/2 cup walnut halves
2 tbsp brown sugar
1 tbsp butter
Pinch of sea salt
Directions
Prepare the Panna Cotta: Sprinkle gelatin over cold water in a small bowl. Let bloom for 5 minutes. In a saucepan, heat cream and sugar over medium heat until sugar dissolves. Remove from heat, add bloomed gelatin and vanilla, whisking until completely dissolved. Strain mixture and divide among 4 ramekins. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
Make the Fig Glaze: In a small saucepan, whisk together Sticky Balsamic Premium Fig, honey, and water. In a separate bowl, mix cornstarch with 1 tsp water to create a slurry. Bring balsamic mixture to a gentle simmer, add cornstarch slurry, and whisk until thickened (about 2-3 minutes). Cool completely.
Prepare Candied Walnuts: Heat butter in a small pan over medium heat. Add walnuts and brown sugar, stirring constantly for 3-4 minutes until caramelized. Sprinkle with sea salt and cool on parchment paper.
Serve: Drizzle fig glaze over chilled panna cotta and top with candied walnuts. Garnish with a few drops of Sticky Balsamic Fig for an elegant finish.
