The pana cotta and beets look incredible - I love the color contrast and can almost imagine the earthy element the beats impart. I admire your creativity and look forward to what the next bout of inspiration brings.

But it looks beautiful, and the flower-shaped beet pieces are lovely! Poaching in wine sounds like a good idea at any rate.

Hello Marilou, to make the brown sugar cinnamon panna cotta, mix 2 packets of Knox unflavored powder gelatin (about 4 1/2 tsp) with 1/4 cup cold water and let the gelatin "bloom." Meanwhile, heat ovn medium 3 1/2 cup heavy cream, half a split vanilla pod (or 1 tsp vanilla extract), and 1/3 cup brown sugar (packed) until the sugar dissolves. Take the pot off the heat and stir in the gelatin and 2 tsp ground cinnamon; mix well. Pour into desired molds (ramekins, wine glasses, etc.) which have been lightly sprayed with neutral-tasting oil. The number of servings depends on the size of the serving molds/glasses. Chill 3-4 hours, the deeper the mold/glass, the longer it takes for the panna cotta to firm up. :)

Those beets are beautiful and look like "cannelés"! Is there any chance we can get the panna cotta recipe, or are there copyright issues involved? I have yet to find my panna cotta "get-go" recipe and would love a tried and trusted recipe. Did you substitute all the white sugar with brown? Thanks you so much in advance!
