Steps:
- Bring the broth, 2 1/2 cups water, butter and 1 teaspoon salt to a boil in a heavy, large saucepan over high heat. Gradually whisk in the polenta. Continue to whisk until the polenta begins to thicken, 2 to 3 minutes. Reduce the heat to low. Cover and cook until the polenta is very thick and tender, stirring often with a flat-bottom spoon or heatproof rubber spatula to prevent sticking or burning, about 20 minutes. Blend the corn in a mini processor until a coarse puree forms. Stir the corn puree into the polenta. Season with more salt if desired.
CHEF JOHN'S THREE CORN POLENTA
When I first began my career as a cook in San Francisco, I remember talking with a Chef about an upcoming menu on which he was thinking of using polenta as the side dish. I asked him if he was talking about polanda. He said he'd never heard of polanda. I called my mom and told her we were going to serve something called polenta at the restaurant. I asked her if she had ever heard of it. She laughed and said that they were the same things! She explained that 'pol-an-da' was just our family's mispronunciation of the actual name polenta. I was pretty embarrassed, to say the least!

Steps:
- Melt 1 teaspoon butter and olive oil in a saucepan over medium-low heat. Cook and stir 2/3 of the corn, with a pinch of salt and a pinch of cayenne pepper in the hot butter and oil until the corn is fragrant and golden, about 10 minutes. Add garlic; cook and stir until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
- Pour 2 cups water into corn mixture; bring to a simmer and whisk polenta into mixture. Bring to a simmer again, reduce heat to low, and simmer, stirring occasionally, until mixture is thick and polenta absorbs the water, 20 minutes. Add remaining 1/2 cup water and stir; cook for until water is completely absorbed, about 10 minutes more.
- Stir remaining corn and 1 teaspoon butter into polenta mixture. Remove from heat, cover the pot, and let sit for 5 minutes before serving.

Steps:
- Bring 7 cups water to a boil in a large saucepan; add 4 teaspoons salt. Whisking constantly, add cornmeal a little at a time. Reduce heat to medium-low; cook, stirring frequently with a wooden spoon, until polenta pulls away from sides of pan and is very thick, about 25 minutes.
- Heat oil in a medium skillet over medium-low heat until hot but not smoking. Add prosciutto and garlic. Cook, stirring, until prosciutto is slightly crisp, about 5 minutes; stir into polenta. Season with salt and pepper, if desired.
- Pour polenta mixture into a 9-by-13-inch baking pan; smooth with a dampened spatula. Let cool at least 1 hour.
- If not serving polenta immediately, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate until ready to use (or overnight).
- Trim 1/4 inch from all sides of polenta. Cut polenta into 48 squares. Preheat broiler with rack 5 inches from heat. Lightly brush a metal baking pan with oil; heat under broiler 30 seconds. In batches, broil squares in pan, 2 minutes. Place cheese on each square; season with pepper. Broil until cheese is melted, about 1 1/2 minutes. Garnish with herb sprigs.
DOUBLE CORN POLENTA WITH PROSCIUTTO
Found this recipe in a Redbook Magazine. Actually my granddaughter, Kayla, found it and begged me to cook it, so I did. It was wonderful. Will be making it again because we get tired of ordinary rice, noodles or potatoes. and because, well...it is WONDERFUL! By the way, for those, like me, who are not familiar with polenta, it is course grain corn meal like Albers. I sent my DH to the market to get a bag of dry polenta when I had a whole box of corn meal in the cupboard, lol.

POLENTA WITH CORN
Steps:
- In a medium-size saucepan, bring the milk, 2 cups water and bay leaf to a boil. Season generously with salt, almost to the point of over seasoning. How do you know that you are there? TASTE IT! When it has reached a boil, slowly whisk in the polenta in small sprinkles. Once all of the polenta has been incorporated, reduce the heat to medium and immediately switch over to stirring with a wooden spoon. Cook the polenta until it begins to pull away from the pan, adding water to loosen it up if it becomes too thick. Add the corn and stir to combine. When the polenta is thoroughly cooked, it should look creamy and not feel gritty on your tongue. Remove it from the heat and stir in the Parmesan and mascarpone.
CORN POLENTA
This is a great hard polenta recipe. In fact, with a few modifications, I used this for my final cooking practical in culinary school. Allow this to set and use for croutons, grill, sauté, or whatever.

Steps:
- In a sauce pan sweat the shallot and garlic with a little bit of olive oil until cooked (translucent).
- Add the water and quickly bring to a boil.
- Gradually whisk in the polenta a little at a time until all the polenta is in the water (to prevent lumps).
- Turn the heat down to medium-low flame and cook the polenta until done (about 40 minutes or when the polenta 'pulls' away from the sides of the pan).
- Stir frequently so the polenta doesn't crust on the bottom of the pan--this makes cleanup MUCH easier.
- In another pan sweat the corn until fully cooked, no colour, then remove from heat.
- When the polenta is done fold in the corn and grated cheese.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Layout on a pan or into a mold and refrigerate until firm (20 minutes).
- To serve: Sauté, grill, toss with flour and fry for croutons, etc-- the options are endless!
- As an extra option, use 5 cups of water instead of 4 for a soft polenta. Serve warm out of the pan and elevate it by adding some marscapone cheese, whipped cream, or roasted mushrooms.

Steps:
- Gradually add the polenta to the lightly salted, hot water by allowing it to fall from your hand from above the pot like sand through your fingers.
- If the water is not boiling, you will be able to stir in all the polenta without lumps forming.
- As the temperature rises, the flour will integrate with the water and thicken.
- Stir all the time, and if you have used too much of the flour and the mixture is too thick, add a little water.
- I taste for salt and perhaps add a little parmesan cheese.
- When the polenta is smooth and does not taste of raw maize, it is ready.
- You can use this sloppy polenta with anything that has been braising for a while.
- Alternatively, pour the polenta into a flat baking dish where it will cool and become firm.
- At that point, it can be grilled or oven baked for 20 minutes.
- As a grilled slice, polenta can be used as a base for eggplant slices, goats cheese, rocket, prosciutto and so on.
- For me, grilled polenta is good with either baked or fried fish and lumps of parmesan cheese.
- Baked polenta can be dressed with cheese, roasted capsicum and fine pancetta.
- After you have poured the polenta into a tray, some will remain stuck to the sides of the pot.
- Let it dry even for a day, and peel these skins off.
- They are delicious with parmesan cheese.
