I think we can all be agree that Panna Cotta is one of the easiest desserts to make. In the meantime, it's so tasty and there are tones of different flavors you can add to it! All you need is a saucepan and some patient! Yes, I know! The annoying part is to be patient while you have this beauty in your fridge. Panna Cotta usually takes around 4-5 hour (minimum) to set depends on how cold is your fridge. So if you want to make it for a party I would recommend to make it a night before and just leave it in the fridge to get set.
Chai Panna Cotta is not a very common flavor but as an Iranian who loves tea I said why not give it a try!
Chai in Farsi translates to tea; just a black tea with no additional flavors or spices. In this recipe I used black tea you can also use earl gray tea if you want. I recommend to let the mixture sit few minutes before strain it so tea get enough time to pass on the flavor.
You can keep the Panna Cotta covered in the fridge for up to couple days.
