Ingredients
- 2 cups heavy cream
- 1 cup whole milk
- 0.5 cup granulated sugar
- 1 packet unflavored gelatin powder
- 3 tablespoons cold water
- 0.5 teaspoons ground cardamom
- 1.5 teaspoons rose water
- 0.5 cup edible rose petals
- 1 large egg white
- 0.25 cup superfine sugar
Directions
Step 1
Sprinkle the gelatin over the cold water in a small bowl and let it bloom for 5 minutes.
Step 2
In a medium saucepan, combine the heavy cream, whole milk, granulated sugar, and cardamom. Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar has dissolved and the mixture is hot but not boiling, about 5 minutes.
Step 3
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the bloomed gelatin until fully dissolved.
Step 4
Add the rose water and stir to combine.
Step 5
Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve to remove any undissolved gelatin or cardamom bits.
Step 6
Divide the mixture evenly among 4 serving glasses or ramekins. Let them cool to room temperature, then cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or until set.
Step 7
To make the candied rose petals, gently whisk the egg white until frothy. Using a pastry brush, lightly coat each rose petal with the egg white.
Step 8
Sprinkle superfine sugar evenly over the petals, ensuring they are fully coated.
Step 9
Place the sugared petals on a wire rack or parchment-lined baking sheet and let dry at room temperature for 2-3 hours or until crisp.
Step 10
Once the panna cottas are set, garnish each serving with candied rose petals. Optionally, serve with a drizzle of honey or a few extra drops of rose water for added elegance.
