I have been adding recipes for a while to a new cookbook so I could find them when I wanted to cook them. In the electronic age, a digital version seems to make more sense, since I can add, amend, advise, adjust, delete, and reconsider as often as I want to and you can access them if and when you please. I've included the recipes from my original cookbook which many of you have. I'm also going to be adding pictures as I retest many of these recipes. They aren't the latest thing or nouvelle cuisine. They're comfort food, good memories, treasured family recipes, and occasional treats as well as many healthier recipes I've grown to like in recent years. I encourage you to add comments, pictures, and favorite recipes to make this a real family cooking spot. It's the next best thing to sharing a meal.

Panna Cotta

3 cups half and half, divided
3 tsp. powdered geletin
1/3 to 1/2 cup sugar 1 tsp. vanilla (or other flavoring)
Pinch salt
 
Grease ramekins if unmolding, spray and wipe clean. Pour half of milk (Half /n Half) into saucepan and sprinkle gelatin over.  Let soften for about five minutes until surface wrinkles and grains look wet and slighly dissolved. Set over low heat and warm gently while whisking frequently.  Never boil or simmer.  Make sure its smooth.  Dip in spoon and look at back for grains.  Stir in sugar and dissolve.  Again, never boil as it destroys firming quality of gelatin.  Whisk in rest of Half 'n Half and flavoring.  Pour into ramekins or serving dishes and chill. Top or garnish with lemon curd, fruit, or fruit puree, as desired.  Serves 6
