Steps:
- Soak the dried mushrooms in 150ml warm water. Set aside for 20 mins, then drain and squeeze, reserving the soaking liquid. Heat the butter in a large frying pan. When sizzling, add the shallot and cook for a few mins until soft. Add the garlic and thyme leaves, cook for 1 min more, then turn up the heat and add the soaked mushrooms. After 1 min, add all the other mushrooms and fry over a very high heat for 5 mins until soft. Splash in the red wine and boil rapidly for 1 min. Pour in the stock and reserved mushroom liquid, and simmer for 15 mins until you have a thickened stew. Turn off the heat.
- For the polenta, bring the milk to the boil with 500ml water, the bay and thyme. Turn off the heat and leave to infuse for 20 mins, then fish out the herbs and bring back to the boil. Add the polenta in a steady stream, whisking steadily. Cook for 1 min until thickened, then stir in the butter and Parmesan. Spoon a 'crater' of polenta onto a baking tray and fill with the ragout. Top with slices of Taleggio, place under a hot grill until melting and oozy, then let everyone help themselves.

SOFT POLENTA WITH MUSHROOM RAGU
Adding cheese to polenta makes the texture even creamier. We used Fontina, which is a mild, nutty cheese that melts easily; Monterey Jack would also be good.

Steps:
- Place dried mushrooms in a medium bowl; add 4 cups warm water. Let soak until soft, about 30 minutes. Drain in a sieve lined with a paper towel or coffee filter, reserving liquid. Squeeze mushrooms to remove excess liquid; roughly chop.
- In a 12-inch skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Cook onion, stirring often, until soft, about 5 minutes. Add garlic; cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add fresh mushrooms; season with salt and pepper. Cover; cook until mushrooms release their juices, about 10 minutes. (If mushrooms begin to brown, add up to 1/4 cup water.)
- Uncover; raise heat to high. Cook, stirring often, until liquid evaporates and mushrooms brown, 5 to 6 minutes. Add dried mushrooms, thyme, sherry, and tomato paste; cook until pan is dry, about 2 minutes. Stir in reserved liquid. Simmer, partially covered, until sauce has thickened, about 25 minutes. Stir in vinegar. Serve over soft polenta (see below).
- To make soft polenta: In a small bowl, whisk together the yellow cornmeal with 1 cup cold water. In a medium saucepan, bring the remaining 3 1/4 cups water, coarse salt, and ground pepper to a fill rapid boil. Gradually stir in cornmeal mixture. Simmer, stirring frequently, until mixture is thick, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from heat; stir in grated Fontina cheese and butter until melted.

- In a large saucepan, combine 4 1/2 cups of the stock with the milk and bring to a boil. Whisk in the polenta in a slow, steady stream. Add a generous pinch of salt and cook over moderately low heat, whisking frequently, until the polenta pulls away from the side of the pot and it's thick and creamy, about 30 minutes. Whisk in 4 tablespoons of the butter and the 1/4 cup of cheese and season with salt and pepper. Remove from the heat. Press plastic wrap directly onto the surface of the polenta to prevent a film from forming. Cover and keep warm, adding tablespoons of water if it gets too thick.
- In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of the olive oil until shimmering. Add half of the mushrooms and season with salt and pepper. Cook over moderately high heat, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms are golden and tender, about 5 minutes; transfer to a plate. Repeat with the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil and mushrooms.
- Return all of the mushrooms to the skillet. Add the vinegar and lemon juice and cook over moderate heat, stirring, until absorbed, about 2 minutes. Add the thyme, rosemary and the remaining 1 cup of stock and cook, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms are coated in a light sauce, 3 to 5 minutes. Stir in the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter and 2 tablespoons of parsley, then season with salt and pepper.
- Transfer the polenta to shallow bowls and spoon the mushrooms on top. Garnish with chopped parsley and serve, passing grated cheese at the table.
