Try our unique liquorice panna cotta with a sweet pineapple twist!
Ingredients:
  • 375ml (1 1/2 cups) milk
  • 375ml (1 1/2 cups) thin cream
  • 75g (1/3 cup) caster sugar
  • 80g licorice, chopped
  • 1/2 tsp aniseed essence
  • 20.00 gm hot water
  • 7.50 gm powdered gelatine
  • 70g (1/3 cup) raw caster sugar
  • 1 vanilla bean, split
  • 1/2 (about 550g) pineapple, peeled, cored, finely chopped
  • 20.00 ml white rum
  • Extra licorice, chopped, to garnish
Instructions:
  • Place six 125ml (1/2-cup) metal or ceramic moulds on a tray. Heat milk, cream, caster sugar, licorice, and aniseed essence in a saucepan over medium heat until boiling. Simmer on low heat for 8 minutes, stirring until most of the licorice dissolves. Strain the mixture through a fine sieve into a bowl, discarding any undissolved licorice.
  • In a heatproof jug, pour water and sprinkle gelatine over it. Stir gently with a fork until it dissolves. Combine gelatine with the milk mixture and stir well. Pour the mixture into moulds, cover with plastic wrap, and chill in the fridge for 6 hours until set.
  • In a saucepan over medium heat, mix raw caster sugar and vanilla bean until sugar dissolves, around 3 minutes. Bring to a boil, then add pineapple and cook until liquid reduces by half, about 2 minutes. Let it sit for 10 minutes, then stir in rum. Cover with plastic wrap and chill in the fridge until needed.
  • To serve, briefly dip the moulds in boiling water, then gently unmold each panna cotta onto a plate. Sprinkle with chopped licorice and enjoy with pineapple and syrup.
