Ingredients

  • 2 cups of heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup of milk
  • 1/3 cup of sugar
  • 1 pinch of saffron threads
  • 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract
  • 2 1/2 teaspoons of gelatin (powdered)
  • 3 tablespoons of water
  • 1/2 cup of pistachios (chopped)
  • Edible gold leaf for garnish (optional)

Мethod of preparation

Begin by soaking the saffron threads in a tablespoon of warm milk for about 10 minutes to release their color and aroma. In a small bowl, mix gelatin with three tablespoons of water and set aside to bloom. Heat the cream, remaining milk, and sugar in a saucepan over medium heat. Do not boil. Once hot, add the saffron mixture and vanilla extract, stirring well. Remove from heat, add the bloomed gelatin, and stir until completely dissolved. Pour the mixture into desired molds, adding chopped pistachios at the base for texture. Let it set in the fridge for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight. To serve, unmold and garnish with more pistachios and optional edible gold leaf for an extra touch of luxury. Dive into this creamy, fragrant delight and experience a dessert that's truly out of this world.
