HOW TO MAKE PERFECT POLENTA | ALLRECIPES
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.

BASIC POLENTA RECIPE - NYT COOKING
Polenta is basically cornmeal mush, and it can be made with any kind of cornmeal, ground coarse, medium or fine. (You don’t need bags marked “polenta.”) As with most ingredients, though, the better the cornmeal you start with, the better your result in the kitchen. The trick is cooking the polenta for a sufficient amount of time. You must allow the cornmeal to swell and become fully cooked. That way, you emphasize the sweet corn flavor and don’t end up with something bitter and lame. Yes, it takes a long time. But it’s worth it — and you can fry the leftovers tomorrow night in a snap.

Steps:
- For firm polenta use 4 cups water; for soft polenta use 5 cups water. Bring water to a boil in a medium-size heavy sauce pan over high heat. Add 1 teaspoon salt. Pour cornmeal slowly into water, stirring with a wire whisk or wooden spoon. Continue stirring as mixture thickens, 2 to 3 minutes.
- Turn heat to low. Cook for at least 45 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes or so. If polenta becomes quite thick, thin it with 1/2 cup water, stir well and continue cooking. Add up to 1 cup more water as necessary, to keep polenta soft enough to stir. Put a spoonful on a plate, let it cool, then taste. Grains should be swollen and taste cooked, not raw. Adjust salt and add pepper if you wish.
- For firm polenta, lightly butter a baking sheet or shallow dish, approximately 8 1/2 by 11 inches. Carefully pour polenta into pan. Using a spatula, spread polenta to a thickness of 3/4 inch. Cool to room temperature to allow polenta to solidify. Cover and refrigerate for up to 3 days. For soft polenta, add 6 tablespoons butter to pot and stir well. Serve immediately or transfer to a double boiler set over low heat, cover and keep warm for up to an hour or so. (Or set the saucepan in a pot of barely simmering water.) Stir well before spooning into low soup bowls. Sprinkle with Parmesan, if desired.

- 1. Make the Loaf: Preheat the oven to 400?F and line a 2-pound loaf pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang. 2. In a large bowl, whisk together the oil and sugar. Crack in the eggs, one a time, whisking between each addition. 3. In a separate bowl, combine the polenta, flour, baking powder and Earl Grey tea. Add the dry ingredients to the oil mixture, along with the lemon zest, and stir until just combined. 4. Scrape the batter into the prepared pan and bake until risen and golden, 40 to 45 minutes. 5. Make the Lemon Syrup: About 5 minutes before the cooking time is up, pour the lemon juice into a small saucepan and add the sugar. Heat over medium-low until you have a glossy syrup. Remove from the heat. 6. While the cake is still warm and in the pan, use a skewer or tip of a sharp knife to gently poke 8 holes in the top and pour the syrup over. Cool completely in the pan. Once cool, lift the cake out of the pan using the parchment overhang and cut into slices. Note: Thanks to the lemon syrup, this loaf cake keeps well in an airtight container for up to 4 days.

- 1. Preheat the oven to 425?F. In a medium saucepan, cook the bacon over medium heat, stirring frequently, until the fat renders out and the bacon is crisp, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain the bacon with a slotted spoon and set aside. Reserve the bacon fat for step 2. 2. Prepare the Mushrooms: Use a paring knife to trim the mushrooms into medium-large pieces, leaving medium and small mushrooms whole. On an unlined baking sheet, toss the mushrooms with the bacon fat; season with salt and pepper. 3. Spread the mushrooms in an even layer on the baking sheet and then transfer to the oven. Roast until the mushrooms are tender and beginning to brown around the edges, 25 to 35 minutes. 4. While the Mushrooms Cook, Make the Polenta: In the same saucepan that you cooked the bacon, bring the broth, milk and shallot to a simmer. Gradually whisk in the polenta, then reduce the heat to low and cook, stirring frequently, until the polenta is thick and tender, 12 to 15 minutes. Stir in the butter and Parmesan, then season to taste with salt and pepper. 5. To serve, spoon the polenta into shallow bowls and top with the roasted mushrooms and bacon. Garnish with thyme, rosemary and chives.
