Method

Soak gelatin

Put the gelatin sheets in a bowl of cold water and let them soak for 5 minutes, until they are fully soft and bendy. Separate any sheets that stick together so they soften evenly.

Heat the cream

Split the vanilla bean lengthwise with a sharp knife and scrape out the seeds. Add the heavy cream, granulated sugar, the seeds, and the pod to a small saucepan, then warm over medium heat, stirring now and then, until the sugar dissolves and the cream is steaming with tiny bubbles around the edge. Do not let it boil; take it off the heat as soon as it is hot and fragrant.

Whisk in gelatin

Remove the vanilla pod. Lift the softened gelatin out of the water, squeeze away the excess, and whisk it into the hot cream until it disappears completely. Strain the mixture through a fine sieve into a jug or measuring cup so the panna cotta turns out extra smooth.

Chill until set

Divide the mixture evenly among 4 ramekins or small glasses, then refrigerate until set, about 4 hours. It should wobble like soft custard when you gently jiggle the dish.

Serve chilled

Serve the panna cotta chilled, right from the ramekins or glasses.
