Directions

  1. Place sixteen 4-ounce ramekins on a rimmed baking sheet.

  2. Split vanilla bean lengthwise with the tip of a sharp knife. Holding the pod open, scrape seeds from each half using the flat side of your knife.

  3. Fill a large pot halfway with water and bring to a simmer over medium heat.

  4. Combine vanilla pods, scraped beans, heavy cream, and 1 cup sugar in a large bowl that will fit snugly into the pot, whisk thoroughly to mix. Place bowl over simmering water, whisk until cream mixture is just warm and sugar is dissolved, about 5 minutes.

  5. Remove bowl from heat and strain cream mixture using a fine-mesh strainer. Pour out hot water.

  6. Sprinkle gelatin over 1/2 cup water in a small bowl and stir quickly with a large toothpick until granules are separated. Pour gelatin into cream mixture and whisk thoroughly. Let sit until slightly cool, about 20 minutes.

  7. Whisk buttermilk thoroughly into cream mixture, pour into ramekins. Cover with plastic wrap and chill until set, at least 6 hours and preferably overnight.

  8. Place blueberries in a large saucepan over medium heat, cook until slightly toasted and starting to release their juices, about 5 minutes. Stir in orange juice and 1 cup sugar. Bring to a simmer and cook until mixture is reduced by half, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool until thickened and syrupy, about 30 minutes.

  9. Run a thin knife around the edges of each ramekin. Invert panna cotta onto serving plates. Serve topped with blueberry topping.
