Panna Cotta
Quick answer
Panna cotta is a Piedmontese dessert of sweetened cream set with gelatin, often served with berries or caramel.
Cream is warmed with sugar and vanilla, gelatin dissolved in, then chilled in molds.
It should wobble — too much gelatin makes it rubbery.

What Italian food should I serve on game day?
The best Italian game day spread is handheld and make-ahead: sausage and peppers sandwiches or sliders, arancini, meatballs in sauce, mozzarella in carrozza, caponata with bread and a salumi-and-cheese board. Most of it can be cooked before kickoff and kept warm.
