Tips

If you don't have access to all the ingredients listed in a recipe, fear not, as there are plenty of substitutions you can make. Swap out matcha for green tea powder or even cocoa powder for a different flavor profile in your panna cotta. If you don't have pistachios, try almonds or hazelnuts for that satisfying crunch. Instead of raspberries, use strawberries or blackberries to create a vibrant sauce, and if you don't have lavender on hand, opt for rosemary or mint to infuse your ice cream. With a little creativity, you can create a dessert masterpiece using ingredients you already have in your pantry.
