elle j Vanilla Bean Panna Cotta Sep 9, 2008 6:05 AM Panna cotta is a traditional Northern Italian dessert, which literally translates to "cooked cream." It can be flavored and garnished a bunch of different ways, but I decided to go with classic vanilla. Although vanilla bean is not necessary, it definitely enhances both the flavor and visual appeal. Vanilla beans can often be found at stores like Penzey's, Sur la Table, William-Sonoma, Whole Foods, and of course online.
