Instructions
For the sage panna cotta:
- Line a quarter sheet pan with parchment paper (or lightly oil 8 ramekins if using).
- In a small bowl, sprinkle the gelatin over the cold water and let sit for 5 minutes.
- Add heavy cream, milk, sugar, salt, and sage leaves to a saucepan. Warm over mediumlow heat, stirring occasionally, until steaming and the sugar dissolves, 5-7 minutes. Do not boil.
- Remove from the heat, cover, and let the sage steep for 15 minutes.
- Strain out the sage leaves and return the infused cream mixture to the saucepan.
- Warm gently over low heat. Add the bloomed gelatin and whisk until fully dissolved, 1-2 minutes.
- Whisk in the vanilla extract.
- Pour into the prepared sheet pan (or ramekins). Refrigerate until fully set, at least 4 hours or overnight.
For the peach sorbet:
- Combine sugar and water in a small saucepan and bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring until the sugar dissolves, 2-3 minutes. Remove from the heat and chill completely.
- Purée the peaches with the chilled syrup, lemon juice, and salt in a blender until very smooth.
- Strain through a fine-mesh sieve.
- Chill the base until very cold, at least 2 hours.
- Churn in an ice cream maker according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
- Transfer to a container and freeze until scoopable, at least 2 hours.
For the honeycomb crumble:
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Combine granulated sugar, honey, water, and corn syrup in a saucepan over medium heat. Cook without stirring until the mixture reaches 300 degrees, 8-12 minutes.
- Remove from the heat. Quickly whisk in the baking soda. The mixture will foam up.
- Immediately pour onto the parchment-lined baking sheet and let cool completely, about 30 minutes. Once cool, break into shards.
To serve:
- If using ramekins, serve panna cotta directly. If using a sheet pan, cut circles and transfer to plates.
- Add a scoop of peach sorbet alongside.
- Finish with honeycomb shards over the panna cotta
