It is a cold, sunny October morning. The day invites me to put on my coat and take a walk among the autumn trees. So I decide to go for a walk!
I walk through the Retiro Park in Madrid and, surrounded by nature, I start thinking about the benefits of chia seeds. They are good for the bones, reduce cholesterol, regulate intestinal transit and help to lose weight. These chia seeds are tiny but with a multitude of healthy properties.

On my back back home, I stop by the supermarket. I buy sugar, whipping cream, vanilla extract, gelatin sheets, chia seeds and raspberries.
How to Make Panna Cotta with Raspberries and Chia Seeds
1. In a bowl, pour cold water and soak in two gelatin sheets (4 grams) for 10 minutes, so they will hydrate.
2. In a pot, add 500 ml of whipping cream and 50 grams of sugar. Now stir with a wire whisk over medium heat ( level 6 if you´re using glass-ceramic ) until combined.
3. Add in one tablespoon of vanilla extract and two tablespoons of chia seeds.
4. When the mixture is boiling, add in two gelatin sheets and stir until dissolved.
5. Once the gelatin sheets have dissolved, turn up the heat for about 10 seconds and stir well. Then, turn off the fire.
6. Allow the mixture to cool at room temperature for about 10 minutes before pouring it in small glasses. Then, put the panna cotta to chill in the refrigerator for three hours.
7. Top with raspberries and, if you like, decorate with a mint leaf to give a wild and colourful touch.
8. Et voilà … You now have made a delicious panna cotta ready to delight your guests.
