HOW TO MAKE PERFECT POLENTA
Polenta is nothing more than coarsely ground cornmeal. The classic ratio is 1 part polenta to 4 parts water, but I like to measure the polenta just a little scant of a full cup. I often use chicken broth instead of water. It's a perfect base for any kind of saucy meat or mushroom ragout.

Steps:
- Bring water and salt to a boil in a large saucepan; pour polenta slowly into boiling water, whisking constantly until all polenta is stirred in and there are no lumps.
- Reduce heat to low and simmer, whisking often, until polenta starts to thicken, about 5 minutes. Polenta mixture should still be slightly loose. Cover and cook for 30 minutes, whisking every 5 to 6 minutes. When polenta is too thick to whisk, stir with a wooden spoon. Polenta is done when texture is creamy and the individual grains are tender.
- Turn off heat and gently stir 2 tablespoons butter into polenta until butter partially melts; mix 1/2 cup Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese into polenta until cheese has melted. Cover and let stand 5 minutes to thicken; stir and taste for salt before transferring to a serving bowl. Top polenta with remaining 1 tablespoon butter and about 1 tablespoon freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese for garnish.

POLENTA SOUP
This recipe comes from the Monday to Friday Cookbook by Michele Urvater. We really love the flavor of it, but find it is not substantial enough for dinner by itself. It is, however, excellent with ham (or grilled cheese) sandwiches. This could easily be turned into a vegetarian dish, as well, by substituting water or vegetable stock for the chicken stock.

Steps:
- 1. Tip: For a smooth and velvety soup like Lydia's, I pulsed my cornmeal in my food processor for about 20 seconds before starting the recipe. First, whisk the polenta and flour in a saucepan.
- 2. Starting with 1 cup of broth, whisk the broth and polenta-flour mixture and remove any lumps. Add the butter and salt and stir.
- 3. Continue adding broth while whisking and place on medium-high heat to bring to a boil. Lower to medium heat and simmer soup for 25 minutes. Stir gently.
- 4. Add spinach to soup and stir. Continue cooking on medium-low heat for 10 minutes. If using, serve with grated parmesan cheese and a drizzle of olive oil. Enjoy.

- Oven Polenta With Roasted Mushrooms and Thyme. Still stirring your polenta? With this nearly hands-off polenta recipe, the oven does the hard work while your stovetop does the bare minimum.
- Cheesy Baked Butternut Squash Polenta. Butternut squash melts into the polenta as this creamy, make-ahead dish cooks, while chunks of Fontina create melting pockets of cheese throughout.
- Blood Orange and Poppy Polenta Shortbread Cookies. Polenta adds corny, savory deliciousness to these light and sweet cookies. If you can't find blood oranges, substitute navel orange zest and juice.
- Wild Mushroom and Parsnip Ragout With Cheesy Polenta. This hearty vegetarian ragout—served on a bed of creamy polenta—gets a boost of rich flavor from umami-packed tomato and miso pastes.
- Brown Butter-Polenta Cake with Maple Caramel. We love using polenta in our baking. To make sure this cake comes out moist, use finely ground polenta (labeled "quick-cooking" or "instant").
- Upside-Down Blood Orange–Polenta Cake. A touch of polenta in the batter gives this cake satisfying texture and an extra layer of nutty sweetness. Get This Recipe.
- Slow Cooker Ricotta-Spinach Polenta with Tomato Salad. Polenta recipes often use the pantry staple as a neutral carb canvas for a rich sauce or braised meat, but here the creamy ricotta-and-spinach-enriched polenta is the centerpiece, with a simple little salad on top for freshness.
- Polenta Cacio e Pepe. This polenta recipe uses the pressure cooker for a dish that's simple and so delicious. If you don't have Pecorino, Parmesan also works well.
- Italian Fish and Vegetable Stew. Polenta doesn't need a heavy meat topping. Here, it gets firm white fish (such as mahi-mahi, cod, or halibut) and a bright sauce made with fresh vegetables, plus a bit of red wine vinegar, lemon juice, and mustard.
- Polenta Bites with Wild Mushrooms and Fontina. Store-bought tubes of polenta are the ultimate appetizer shortcut: just slice and toast in the oven, top with sautéed wild mushrooms and a sprinkling of grated Fontina, then bake again until melty and irresistible.
