Categories     weekday, side dish

Time 1h

Yield about 4 cups (about 6 servings)

Number Of Ingredients 3

7 cups water
1 teaspoon salt
1 2/3 cups coarse-grained yellow cornmeal, preferably Italian

Steps:

  • Bring the water to a boil in a large, heavy pot.
  • Add the salt; then add the cornmeal in a very thin stream, letting it run through a closed fist. Stir constantly with a whisk while adding.
  • When all the cornmeal has been added, stir with a wooden spoon 2 minutes, and then cover pot. Adjust heat so the water is at a lively simmer. After 10 minutes, stir 1 minute; then cover pot again. Repeat three more times. Let polenta cook 5 minutes longer, for a total of 45 minutes.
  • Stir vigorously for another minute. Transfer to a moistened bowl (rinsed but not dried), and let polenta rest 10 to 15 minutes. Unmold onto a platter and serve at once, or let it cool to use in other recipes.

This recipe is really great. You can put it in the oven at the same time you're cooking what you want to put over it (chicken stew, sausage and tomatoes, etc.) Leftovers can be sliced the next day and sauteed in butter.
