"Creamy polenta is a comfort food from Italian cuisine prepared with slowly cooked cornmeal, butter, and parmesan. It features a velvety and consistent texture, being an excellent base for rich sauces and pot roasts."
- Pouring the cornmeal in a constant stream into the boiling water prevents the formation of lumpy clumps in the pot. - Cooking for 30 minutes over low heat eliminates the raw starch taste and ensures a fine texture to the palate. - Adding cold butter with grated Parmesan cheese off the high heat ensures a perfect velvety emulsion.
Start by boiling water in a large pot with a pinch of salt.
When the water is bubbling, add the cornmeal slowly, stirring constantly with the wooden spoon to avoid the formation of lumps.
Keep stirring until the mixture begins to thicken.
Reduce the heat and cook for approximately 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Add the butter and stir until completely melted.
Add grated parmesan cheese, mixing well to incorporate.
Season with black pepper to taste.
Pour the creamy polenta onto a serving plate and serve hot.

- Add two tablespoons of crumbled gorgonzola cheese along with the butter for a pronounced aromatic touch. - Mix fresh sage leaves fried in butter over the polenta at the moment of assembling the platter. - Incorporate mashed roasted garlic cloves in paste form directly into the polenta during the final cooking phase.
- The water can be replaced entirely or in part with homemade vegetable broth or clear chicken broth. - Regular butter can be replaced by unsalted butter with a tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil. - Parmesan cheese can be swapped for Grana Padano, Pecorino Romano, or grated cured Minas cheese.
Keep the polenta in a closed glass container under refrigeration for up to 4 days. Upon cooling it will firm up completely; to reheat with creaminess, place in a pan with a little milk or hot water and mix vigorously.
It is not recommended to freeze the finished creamy polenta, as the starch undergoes retrogradation in the freezer and releases water, resulting in a spongy texture. If you want to freeze firm leftovers, cut into sticks for later frying.
It is the classic garnish for oxtail stew, ossobuco cooked with vegetables, or a rich bolognese sauce with ground meat. It also serves paired with mushrooms sauteed in olive oil with garlic and fresh thyme.
Pour the cornmeal gradually in a thin stream with one hand while vigorously whisking the boiling water with a whisk.
Add small ladles of boiling water or hot broth little by little, stirring until the consistency becomes fluid again.
Traditional medium or fine-ground cornmeal is the most appropriate; pre-cooked flakes require very different proportions and times.
The batter releases easily from the bottom and sides of the pan, without any sandy roughness in the mouth.
