Raspberry In Sour Cream Delight

This recipe of  sour cream is very refreshing, with a nice raspberry sauce to top it up. It looks quite similar to one of my very first dessert attempt – the original panna cotta with pomegranate and white wine sauce – but is a much creamier variant whereas the panna cotta is of a jelly texture with a very strong vanilla flavour which is absent in this one. The topping for this sour cream is also much thicker, reducing a raspberry syrup that goes oh so well with the sour cream. The panna cotta sauce was lighter, using pomegranate juice to simmer with a touch of wine or muscato to add on to its flavour.
