Directions
Cooks in 5 minutes. Basic cooking method (serves 6-8): 4 cups water. 1 tablespoon salt. 1/2 lb cornmeal polenta. Bring water to a boil in a large, heavy pot. Add salt and reduce heat to simmer. Stirring constantly with whisk, slowly add cornmeal to water. Continuing to whisk, cook for approximately 5 minutes. Polenta will become very thick. When polenta comes away from the sides of the pot cleanly, using a spoon or spatula, remove from heat and let sit for two minutes, uncovered. Transfer polenta into warmed serving bowl. Top with your favorite pasta sauce and cheese or as desired. Variations: Baked or grilled polenta: Use basic cooking method, then pour polenta onto a large wooden board or flat platter, smooth polenta evenly with spoon or spatula until it is about 2 inches thick. Let cool for 5-10 minutes or until solidified. Cut into slices 1/2 inch wide and 4-5 inches long. Polenta is ready for grilling or baking. Variation: Cut polenta into triangles or any cookie cutter shape. Fried polenta: Use basic cooking method, then pour polenta onto large wooden board or flat platter. After polenta solidifies (5-10 minutes), cut into desired shape. Pour 1/2 inch of olive oil or vegetable oil into a large skillet and heat until hot but not smoking. Fry polenta slices on both sides until golden. Drain on paper towel and serve. To store: Once formed polenta may be wrapped and refrigerated for up to 5 days or stored frozen for up to 3 months. Unused polenta can be stored in a re-sealable plastic bag and kept in a cool dry place for up to 3 months. Do not refrigerate. Buon appetito!
