Instructions
Prepare the Gelatin
Sprinkle the gelatin over 3 tablespoons of cold water in a small bowl. Let it sit for 5–10 minutes to bloom.
Heat the Cream Mixture
In a medium saucepan, combine the heavy cream, milk, and sugar. Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar is completely dissolved. Do not let it boil.
Incorporate the Gelatin
Remove the saucepan from the heat. Stir in the bloomed gelatin until fully dissolved.
Add Pistachio Flavor
Whisk in the pistachio paste and vanilla extract until smooth. Strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve to ensure a silky texture.
Pour and Chill
Divide the mixture evenly among ramekins or serving glasses. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until set.
