Head Pastry Chef Steve Penny at Royal Lancaster London has shared his recipe for his delicious but simple Honey Pannacotta dessert, available at the hotel’s restaurant, Island Grill.
Ingredients:
1 litre of Cream
50g of Caster Sugar
100g of Honey
10g of Gelatine Powder
30ml of water
Method:
Step 1: Combine the cream, sugar and honey and pour the mixture into a saucepan. Bring to the boil until everything has dissolved into the cream, then turn off the heat.
Step 2: Soften the gelatine powder in the water, and then add to the warm cream.
Step 3: Pour the mixture into the prepared moulds and leave to set overnight.
Step 4: To serve, dip the moulds into a bowl of warm water for a few seconds and the pannacotta should come out nicely into a bowl.
Step 5: Serve with fresh berries and enjoy!
The hotel is home to ten beehives on its second-floor roof. The honey bees pollinate the Lime trees in Hyde Park, located directly opposite the hotel, allowing the Bee Team to harvest a light, citrusy honey which is served in the hotel’s sustainable restaurant, Island Grill, as well as within banqueting dishes and afternoon tea.
