    Love this! It's easy, yet impressive, and the berries with vinegar makes it seem a little upscale. I use a balsamic from a local shop that carries flavored balsamic vinegars (blackberry with ginger and I make my own creme fraiche, which is so easy (search on this site. Everyone always loves it. Great for summer and seems light.

    the result is not what I expected, I had panna cotta at restaurant but this is so smooth & creamy not gello like. it tasted like the mixture of ice ream & mousse. I use 3/4 vanilla bean but it has a lot vanilla tast. I will make again.

    I thought this would be just another Panna Cotta recipe, but since I had all the ingredient, I made it. Was I ever wrong vanilla with just a hit of lemon, this was easy and excellent!
    Thanks, Tyler

    This recipe is simple and delicious. It?s not too much vanilla or too much lemon, neither too sweet nor too tart. The acid from the balsamic was incredible. I used age balsamic which made it even sweeter. I didn?t know that you are supposed to bloom gelatin. Without this concise instruction I may have ruined it. This is my go to recipe for dessert when I have company. It?s people are always impressed.

    I loved the vanilla flavor and the slightest hint of lemon in the panna cotta. The balsamic vinegar syrup was interesting and a bite of all three things together - delicious!!! I had to substitute sour cream for the creme fraiche since i couldn't find it anywhere and didn't have 9 hours to wait while i made homemade. in my opinion, the sour cream worked great in this.

    This panna cotta was a bit denser than I usually like, but it was so unbelievably delicious I didn't care. Nice vanilla flavor. I was worried about the lemon, but it made the dessert refreshing and well balanced. I had no problems preparing the balsamic syrup. I definitely recommend this dessert.

    I made this and it was really wonderful, the panna cotta set up perfectly. My balsamic syrup however was more like balsamic hard caramel. Was I supposed to let the reduced balsamic vinegar cool before I added the sugar? Any thoughts are helpful. Otherwise this was really great, and I will make it again once I get my syrup figured out.

    Made it just like explained, it has a very well balanced flavor between vanilla and lemon. Only thing i might do differnent next time is add 1/2 teaspoon more gelatin, the texture was a little to liquidy for me.

    I am a chocolate addict, but occasionally I need a dessert with a wow factor that is not chocolate for certain friends and family. This recipe is easy and impressive when you put it under your guests' noses. The vanilla bean is essential; I would not substitute vanilla extract. The dessert melts in your mouth, and the balsamic glaze is the twist that has people really intrigued by the unusual but great flavor.
