Cooked cream that learned to stand up straight without spine or apology.
means An Italian dessert of sweetened cream set with gelatin into a soft, wobbly, spoonable custard, usually served chilled and unadorned or with fruit.
from Straight from Italian: panna cotta literally means "cooked cream" — panna (cream) plus cotta, the feminine past participle of cuocere, "to cook," which descends from Latin coquere, the same root that simmers under English "cook" and "kitchen." The dish is associated with the Piedmont region in the north of Italy, though its exact origins are murky and the name is plain enough that it explains itself.
