Vanilla Panna Cotta with Berry Sauce

Italy's 'cooked cream': vanilla-speckled cream barely set with gelatine, turned out and served in a pool of bright berry sauce. Five minutes on the stove, then the fridge does the rest. Adapted from “Panna Cotta (Basic)” in the Wikibooks Cookbook (CC BY-SA 4.0). Gelatine doubled to 1½ tsp and softened in water instead of cream so the panna cotta sets firmly enough to turn out; added a quick blended berry sauce to serve.
