CREAMY POLENTA RECIPE - BON APPéTIT



Creamy Polenta Recipe - Bon Appétit image

A creamy, cheesy polenta that isn’t as high maintenance as you’d expect. Despite its reputation, polenta does not need to be whisked constantly and attentively for 30 minutes straight. As long as you cook it gently, over low heat, you can get away with whisking it only a few times as it cooks. This recipe is from Montreal’s cozy-cool coffee-pizza-wine restaurant Elena.

Provided by Janice Tiefenbach

Yield Makes about 4 cups

Number Of Ingredients 5

3 cups (or more) whole milk
1 cup polenta (coarse cornmeal)
3 oz. finely grated Parmesan (about 1½ cups)
4 Tbsp. unsalted butter
4 tsp. kosher salt

Steps:

  • Bring milk and 3 cups water to a boil over medium-high heat in a medium saucepan. Reduce heat to medium. Whisking constantly, gradually add polenta; bring to a simmer. Reduce heat to low, cover pan, and cook, whisking every 10–15 minutes, until thickened and no longer gritty, 30–35 minutes. Remove from heat and add Parmesan, butter, and salt. Cook, whisking, until butter and cheese are melted and polenta is the consistency of porridge, about 1 minute.
  • Do Ahead: Polenta can be made 3 hours ahead. Store covered at room temperature. Reheat over medium-low, adding milk as needed to loosen.

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.

  • 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.
