When I added the lemon juice, it produced exactly what I suspected it would, a large batch of curdled cream. Not that velvety, smooth, decadent texture I think of when I think of panna cotta. Next time, I will reduce the sugar, leave out the lemon juice, scrape a vanilla bean, remove the lemon zest with a vegetable peeler, and strain before placing in ramekins.
I added a spiced blueberry compote and a basil simple syrup in imitation of a local restaurant dessert.

The recipe produced a delicious lemon panna cotta. Heeding the advice of others, the amount of unflavored gelatin was decreased to 1 whole packet plus 1 teaspoon dissolved in a small amount of liquid and then added to the cream to prevent clumping. This amount of gelatin resulted in the correct consistency for the finished product. Confectioner's sugar was utilized for it's ability to dissolve quickly allowing for ease of incorporation into the simmering cream. One tablespoon of confectioner's sugar was also added to the raspberry coulis to sweeten it slightly. Several fresh, whole raspberries were paced on top of each individual serving in addition to the raspberry coulis for additional decorative appeal. This recipe is elegantly simple and always popular. It is a particularly good choice for summertime.
