Steps:
- 1. Bring the water to a boil in a large heavy pot.
- 2. Add the salt and reduce the heat until water is just simmering.
- 3. Pour the cornmeal in a thin stream into the water while constantly stirring. To avoid lumps, stir quickly with a whisk while adding cornmeal. If you notice clumps, stop adding cornmeal from time to time and beat the mixture vigorously.
- 4. Cook, stirring regularly for 20 to 30 minutes. The Polenta will become very thick while cooking. It is done when it comes away cleanly from the sides of the pot.
- 5. Turn off the heat and add the butter and cheese. Stir until combined.
