California raisins and other dried fruits in spicy wine sauce for this Italian dessert. Yet one more to stash - those raisin guys have got some good stuff going on. Man, oh man, this sounds good to me. I will update after making (& reducing by 80%). Time is just a guess, not including overnight chill. Ingredients:
2 1/2 teaspoons plain gelatin |
7 tablespoons cold water |
3 2/3 cups heavy cream |
1 1/2 cups sugar |
3 cups buttermilk |
1/3 teaspoon salt |
2 cups water |
1/2 cup red wine |
1/2 cup white wine |
2 1/3 cups raisins (california, none other) |
1 1/3 cups dried figs |
1 1/3 cups dried cherries |
3 whole cloves |
2 cinnamon sticks |
1 vanilla bean, seeds only |
2 -3 star anise |
1/2 cup sugar |
2 teaspoons lemon zest |
2 teaspoons orange zest |
1 cup amaretto liqueur |

1. Panna Cotta.
2. In a small bowl, sprinkle gelatin over cold water. Let stand for 3 minutes.
3. Meanwhile in large saucepan, heat and stir cream and sugar over low heat until sugar is all dissolved. Stir in softened gelatin until dissolved. Then, add buttermilk and salt. Divide and spoon into 30 individual glass bowls or 1 large bowl to divide later.
