Preparation
In a medium saucepan, stir together creams, sugar and ginger. Continue to stir and bring to a boil over medium heat. Simmer, covered, 10 min to infuse ginger flavour. Strain through a sieve, pressing on ginger, into a large measuring cup. Discard ginger.
In a small bowl, sprinkle gelatin over water. Let stand about 1 min to soften. Stir gelatin mixture into hot cream until completely dissolved. Stir in vanilla.
Place 6 custard cups, about 1/2 cup (125 mL) in size, on a baking sheet. Pour cream mixture into cups. Cool to room temperature. Refrigerate overnight. Serve in cups topped with berries.
Tips
If serving traditionally, lightly butter cups then follow recipe directions. Before serving, run a knife around edge of cups and, one at a time, place in a bowl of hot water for about 5 sec to help release panna cotta. Flip onto a dessert plate.
Make it tropical by topping with toasted shredded coconut and candied ginger.
Instead of ginger, use orange or lemon peel.
