Panna Cotta is a very simple pudding, made with milk or cream and little bit of gelatin. It’s smooth and delicious and a good base for seasonal embellishment. In February in New England, make it with a healthy dose of maple syrup, and add a festive, red and fruity garnish of sugared cranberries (soak them in simple syrup, drain, and toss with sugar).

Here’s a list of farms selling their own milk. You can also find local bottled milk at retailers prioritizing local sourcing. North Hadley Sugar Shack sells delicious maple-sugared cranberries!
Recipes:
Maple Panna Cotta: I like this recipe because there’s enough maple syrup to impart real flavor, rather than just serve as a token ingredient.
Sugared Cranberries: These are even better when rolled in maple sugar, available from many maple producers . As noted above, you can buy them ready-made from North Hadley Sugar Shack.
