CREAMY POLENTA WITH PARMESAN AND SAUSAGE
Polenta is such a natural base for so many savory foods - more flavorful than either pasta or mashed potatoes, but somehow just as forgiving - that it's hard to pick a favorite topping. Having said that, I know what mine is: sausage. The fatty succulence of a banger combined with the lean graininess of the cornmeal is somehow perfect.

Steps:
- Put oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. When oil is hot, add sausages and cook, turning occasionally, until well browned on all sides and cooked through, about 20 minutes. Set aside.
- Meanwhile, put cornmeal in a medium saucepan along with 1 cup water and whisk well to make a slurry; continue whisking mixture to eliminate any lumps. Put pan over medium-high heat, sprinkle with salt and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium and continue to cook, whisking frequently and adding water as needed to keep mixture loose and free of lumps, between 3 and 4 more cups. If mixture becomes too thick, simply add a bit more water; consistency should be similar to sour cream's.
- Polenta will be done in 15 to 30 minutes, depending on grind. Add cheese and butter. Taste and add salt, if necessary, and lots of pepper; serve topped with sausages.

- Cook sausage with oil in a hot saute pan until done. This may take about 45 minutes. Remove from pan. Let sausage rest 5 to 10 minutes before slicing into about 2 dozen slices. In same pan, gently cook red bell peppers until tender and drain well.
- While the sausage is cooking, begin the polenta. Combine chicken stock and cream in a large heavy saucepan. Heat to a gentle boil over medium heat, being careful not to burn. While whisking constantly, gradually add the cornmeal in a thin stream. Once cornmeal is incorporated, keep heat low and continue to whisk until mixture is slightly thickened and creamy. Stir in butter and cooked red bell peppers. Season with salt and pepper, if needed.
- Spoon a small amount of polenta on each saltine cracker and then a slice of sausage. Then add 1/8 teaspoon polenta on top of the sausage slice and garnish with 1 or 2 slices of scallions.

Steps:
- In a large skillet, warm 2 tablespoons olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the sausages and brown well. Remove and set aside. Reduce heat to medium and stir in the peppers and onions. Sauté, stirring often, until very tender and lightly browned, about 8 minutes. Return the sausage to the pan and stir in the remaining olive oil and the oregano. Reduce heat to very low, cover and set aside while you make the polenta. To make the polenta, bring water to a boil in a teakettle. Turn off heat. Bring broth to boil in a large, heavy saucepan. Reduce heat to low. Stir in the salt and olive oil. Add the polenta very, very gradually, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon. Take your time. Once all the polenta is added let it cook over very low heat for about 5 minutes, stirring constantly. If the polenta becomes to thick to stir, pour in some hot water and blend it in. The polenta is done when it is smooth, shiny and tender. Turn off the heat and stir in the butter and Parmesan. Divide polenta among 4 bowls. Spoon sausage, peppers and onions over the polenta and serve. Pass extra Parmesan for sprinkling.

POLENTA WITH ITALIAN SAUSAGE AND VEGETABLES
Use whatever flavor of polenta you like, the recipe recommends garlic-flavored but we've also used sun-dried tomato basil with great results. Italian sausage can be whatever spiciness you like. We've also used button mushrooms instead of cremini before.
