Steps:
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil and tomatoes. Cook the tomatoes, stirring occasionally, until they start to blister and release some of their juices, 8 to 10 minutes. Toss in the garlic and season generously with salt and pepper. Cook another 1 minute, then remove from the heat.
- In a saucepan over low heat, stir the Parmesan and butter into the Cooked Polenta, thinning with milk as desired. Turn off the heat, stir in the lemon zest, taste for seasoning and add salt if necessary.
- Transfer the polenta to a serving bowl. Use a spoon to create a shallow well and top with the tomatoes, torn basil, some black pepper and a drizzle of olive oil.
- Bring 6 cups of water to a rolling boil in a heavy-bottomed 4-quart saucepan over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat to the lowest possible setting, add the baking soda and 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and pour the cornmeal into the water in a very slow stream from a measuring cup, all the while whisking in a circular motion to prevent lumps.
- Cook, vigorously stirring the polenta with a wooden spoon for about 10 seconds once every 5 minutes and making sure to scrape clean the bottom and corners of the pot, until the polenta has lost its raw cornmeal taste and becomes soft and smooth, about 30 minutes. If the polenta looks like it's drying out too quickly, continue cooking with the lid on. Cooked Polenta recipe courtesy of Jeff Mauro.

POLENTA WITH ASPARAGUS, PEAS AND MINT
Buttery polenta serves as a soft, savory bed for asparagus and peas in this verdant, vegetable-rich main course. Sautéed shallots add sweetness, while fresh mint lends brightness to a satisfying yet light meal. You can substitute any soft herbs for the mint or use a combination for the most complex flavor. And, if you're short on time, instant polenta will work in place of regular, too. Just follow the directions on the package to cook it.

Steps:
- If cooking polenta on stovetop: In a medium pot over high heat, combine 4 1/2 cups water, polenta and 1 teaspoon salt. Bring to a simmer, stirring frequently, until thickened, 30 to 40 minutes, depending on how finely the polenta is ground (coarse-ground polenta takes longer).
- Alternatively, cook polenta in oven: Heat oven to 350 degrees. In a medium Dutch oven or other oven-safe pot over high heat, bring 4 1/2 cups water, polenta and 1 teaspoon salt to a boil. Reduce heat to medium, stirring constantly until the mixture starts to thicken slightly, 3 to 5 minutes. Cover pot and transfer to the oven. Bake for 20 minutes, then give the mixture a stir. If it looks dry, add another 1/2 cup water. Cover the pot once more, and continue to bake for another 20 to 30 minutes.
- When polenta is thick and creamy, stir in 2 to 4 of the tablespoons butter (depending on how buttery you like it) and the Parmesan. Taste and add more Parmesan and salt, if needed.
- As the polenta cooks, prepare the vegetables: In a large skillet, heat oil over medium. Add shallots and sauté until tender and golden, 4 to 6 minutes.
- Stir in garlic and cook for another minute or two, until fragrant and very lightly golden in spots. Add vermouth and cook until alcohol evaporates, about 2 to 3 minutes.
- Stir in asparagus and peas, and cook until vegetables are glossy, 2 to 3 minutes. Add stock, remaining 2 tablespoons butter and a large pinch of salt, and bring to a simmer. Cook until vegetables are tender and sauce thickens slightly, 2 to 8 minutes. (Thicker asparagus will take longer to soften.) Stir in the mint. Taste and add more salt, if needed.
- To serve, spoon polenta into bowls, top with vegetables and their sauce, and grind on lots of fresh pepper. Finish with shaved Parmesan.

QUICK POLENTA WITH PARMESAN CHEESE
Nothing fancy or innovative here, well, except for the cippollini onions, but you can substitute yellow onions. Try another type aged cheese such as fontina, asiago, Parmigiano-regianno or a combination of your favorite Italian cheeses. NO pre-grated cheese however! No, No! I used organic San Gennaro polenta in the tube or "chubs" as they call it. This same recipe is printed on the side of the tube, too if you look hard enough. Some day when I have more time, I'll make polenta again from scratch-stir, stir, stir...Until then I'll stick with the tubed variety. Serve with a tossed spinach salad and crusty bread (ooooh and this: Recipe #237506). Adapted from polenta.net.

- Make the chili oil: place all of the spices in a small bowl. Heat the oil in a small pan over medium-high heat. Once hot, carefully pour over the spices, mix and set aside.
- Char the asparagus: Cut the asparagus on the bias in 2 inch pieces. Heat a large pan over medium-high heat. Add in the oil, and once hot, add in the asparagus. Using tongs, sauté in the oil. After 1 minute, add in a big pinch of kosher salt and ground black pepper. After about 5-7 minutes, once the asparagus is just fork tender, add in fresh lemon juice, toss and remove from heat. Top with fresh lemon zest.
- Make polenta: In a large pot, add 1 cup water with the 2 cloves of garlic over medium-high heat, and bring to a boil. Once boiling, use tongs or a slotted spoon to quickly remove the garlic cloves and slowly pour in the polenta while whisking. Once all the polenta is in, keep whisking until the mixture is smooth with no large lumps. Reduce heat to low, so the mixture is just simmering. Whisk occasionally over the course of 5 minutes until the polenta is swollen and thickening. Then add in the oat milk, stir, cover and cook for about 20-25 minutes until the polenta is soft and cooked up. Remove from the heat and add in a big pinch of kosher salt, freshly ground pepper, the sour cream and 1 tbsp of the vegan butter. Whisk in until smooth and taste to adjust for salt.
- Plating: Pour the polenta into a large serving dish. Top with remaining 1 tbsp of vegan butter, asparagus and drizzle on chili oil. Garnish with toasted pine nuts and microgreens (if using). Serve immediately.
