Lemon Panna Cotta with Rhubarb Sauce

A classic panna cotta with an unexpected twist! To wrap up, I'm sharing one more fun recipe I came up with myself. As I've mentioned before, I like to serve various desserts instead of cake, and this time the pick was panna cotta—but I wanted to dream up something a little different. I settled on the first ingredient, rhubarb, right away. The second one took longer to choose, but in the end I went with lemon. Even though both lemon and rhubarb are quite tart, the dessert comes out sweet.
