Panna cotta

I dunno if I'm doing it in the traditional way. Basically I just want to satisfy my milk pudding crave therefore I made this. It wasn't easy as I was trying to figure out my own recipe so I have a few failed attempts. 


Anyway the successful recipe is as below:

About 100mL full cream fresh milk
1 teaspoon condensed milk
1 teaspoon agar agar powder

So what I did is I mix everything and heat them with medium fire so that the powder will melt. Then just wait for it to settle in the fridge. I didn't mix the powder with water to make normal agar agar mixture as I scare it will become too like normal pudding instead of creamy milk pudding. I used agar agar powder to substitute gelatin but I guess they are more or less the same lol.

And the experience I gained from my fail attempts:

1. Have to melt the agar agar powder if not it will not settle the pudding and will taste powdery

2. Never cook the egg with the milk as it will turn into scramble egg

3. Add egg only if you are going to cook the pudding in oven

Ya I made some scramble eggs @.@ so please don't repeat my experience and make some successful pudding :)
