Method

  1. Start with the set cream layer. In a large saucepan, gently heat the cream, buttermilk, milk and vanilla pod and seeds with the caster sugar until the sugar has melted – don’t let it boil or the buttermilk will curdle.
  2. Meanwhile, soak 3 gelatine leaves in cold water for 2 minutes until soft and spongy. When the cream is steaming, take off the heat and, after squeezing out any excess water, add the gelatine. Stir until completely dissolved. Strain into a jug, then pour into 6 tumblers or wine glasses. Leave to cool, then put in the fridge for 3-4 hours to set.
  3. When the creams have set, make the jelly. Pour 150ml of the sauternes into a saucepan and add the 3 gelatine leaves. Leave the gelatine to soften, then heat gently, stirring, until the gelatine has dissolved. Strain the mixture into the remaining sauternes, stir to combine and leave to cool to room temperature (it will still be liquid). Pour this on top of the creams, then return to the fridge to chill overnight until set. Serve the creams with crisp, buttery biscuits.
