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 polenta recipe is a great way to get your kids to eat their vegetables. I like to stir in some cooked vegetables, such as carrots, peas, or corn, to the polenta. My kids love it, and they don't even realize they're eating vegetables.
