Bloom Gelatin
Soak gelatin in cold water and set aside for 10 minutes, remove from water and
squeeze out any remaining soaked water. This is called blooming the gelatin.
Simmer Coffee
Add the 300 ml of brewed coffee to a small heavy bottom pan and bring to a simmer
(reserve the remaining 50 ml. of coffee for the truffle recipe below).
Combine
Remove from the heat and add the gelatin.
Stir gently to mix the gelatin evenly, but to avoid air bubbles.
Refrigerate for 15 minutes or until firm, leaving the remaining mix at room
temperature.
Meanwhile in a mixing bowl combine eggs and sugar and whisk together.
Pour 1/3 of the hot cream into the eggs, to allow the temperature of the egg mix to
warm so it doesn’t scramble the eggs when added.
Add the warmed egg mix back to the small pot of the remaining cream and whisk
together. Remove from heat.
Combine
Add the bloomed gelatin, whisk together.
Gently pour a ¼ inch layer on top of the firm coffee gelatin from previous recipe
and place in refrigerator for 15 minutes or until firm.
Repeat with the mascarpone panna cotta and coffee gelatin until you have the
desired layers set in your serving vehicle, allow 15 minutes in between each layer.
