Preparation Method Steps:
- Make the panna cotta: Break the white chocolate into small pieces. In a medium saucepan, heat the heavy cream and granulated sugar over medium heat, stirring constantly until the sugar dissolves. Remove from heat and add the white chocolate pieces. Stir until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth.
- Add flavor: Stir in the vanilla extract. Pour the mixture into eight individual ramekins or small glasses. Chill for at least 3 hours, or overnight.
- Make the stewed strawberries: Rinse the strawberries and remove the hulls. Slice the strawberries into thin slices. In a small saucepan, combine the sliced strawberries, sugar, and orange juice. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and cook until the strawberries have softened and released their juices, about 15 minutes.
- Serve: To serve, spoon the stewed strawberries over the panna cotta.
