The fix
Tap a step to check it off.
- 1 warm 2 tablespoons cream and whisk into the panna cotta
- 2 chill for 30 minutes to reset
- 3 serve with berries to soften the bite
If it's still wrong
- serve in small spoonfuls like a jelly
- cut into cubes for a dessert salad
Prevent next time
- use the lower end of the gelatin range
- weigh gelatin for accuracy
Notes
Why this works
Gelatin strength increases quickly with small additions. Diluting with cream relaxes the gel so it feels silky instead of rubbery.
