CORNMEAL PUDDING (POLENTA)
Steps:
- 1) In a large saucepan, add the water, milk, and salt and pepper to taste. Bring to a boil over medium high heat. 2) Lower the heat to medium. Using a heavy wooden spoon, stir in polenta a little at a time, always stirring in the same direction. When all the polenta has been stirred, mixture should start to thicken. 3) Turn the heat down to medium low and continue to stir vigorously and constantly in the same direction for about seven minutes. 4) Remove from the heat, add the butter and the Romano cheese, and blend thoroughly. 5)Lightly coat a work surface with the olive oil. Pour the polenta over area and spread evenly to 1/2 in thick and let cool completely, about 30 minutes. Alternatives: Add 1/2 c of cheve(goat cheese) and 2 tbsp of heavy cream in place of Romano cheese. For richer, add 1/3 c of mascarpone along with butter and romano cheese.

Steps:
- 1. In a large saucepan, combine the honey, salt, butter and 3 cups of the milk. Bring to a boil over medium heat.
- 2. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk together the cornmeal and remaining 1 cup of milk. Add the cornmeal mixture gradually to the milk mixture, whisking until smooth. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and cook, whisking occasionally, for 5 minutes.

- 3. Stir all ingredients and cook on low, stirring frequently.
- 4. As pudding thickens, add raisins and stir into pudding.
- 5. When pudding becomes a tad thicker, spoon into serving bowl, cover, and refrigerate. Serve cold.
Tips:
- Use Fresh Cornmeal: Fresh cornmeal adds a more robust flavor and texture to the pudding.
- Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients Separately: Mixing the wet and dry ingredients separately helps ensure that the batter is smooth and free of lumps.
- Use Full-Fat Milk: Full-fat milk provides a richer flavor and creamier texture to the pudding.
- Bake in a Water Bath: Baking the pudding in a water bath helps prevent the top from browning too quickly and ensures the pudding cooks evenly.
- Chill Before Serving: Chilling the pudding before serving allows it to set and develop a firmer texture.
