PUMPKIN POLENTA CAKE
The grainy texture of polenta and the marriage of flavours of pumpkin and sweet spices create a unique versatile loaf. Can also be made with cooked sweet potato or butternut squash instead of pumpkin. Serve warm or cold with savoury or sweet dishes.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Put the pumpkin in water in a roasting pan on the lower rack of the oven. Bake until very well done and tender, about one hour. Remove and cool slightly. Scoop the meat of the pumpkin into a food processor, add one-quarter cup of the milk and puree until smooth. Keep warm.
- In a large saucepan, combine the remaining milk, the stock, salt, pepper and nutmeg. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat, then gradually whisk in the cornmeal. Stir with a spatula or wooden spoon until the polenta is thick enough to allow the spoon to stand up in it, about 15 minutes. Add the pumpkin puree and butter. Adjust the salt and pepper.
- Pour the mixture into a parchment-lined 16-by-12-by-1-inch sheet pan. Smooth and level the surface, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until firm, about four hours.
- Remove the plastic wrap, and with a knife or cookie cutter, cut the polenta into triangles, rectangles or diamonds. Invert the pan to unload. Refrigerate until ready to cook, covering with plastic wrap if it is for more than an hour.
- In a nonstick skillet, heat just enough butter to cover the bottom of the pan over high heat. Carefully add the polenta and sear about two minutes on each side and drain on a paper towel. Serve at once.

PUMPKIN AND SAGE POLENTA
Steps:
- 1. In a large pot over medium-high heat, bring the stock, salt, pepper, nutmeg and sage to a boil. Add the polenta in a slow, gentle stream, whisking constantly.

Steps:
- Bring water or stock and salt to boil. Reduce heat to a simmer.
- Stir in pumpkin.
- SLOWLY pour in corn meal while continuously stirring.
- An easy way of doing this is to pick up handfuls of cornmeal and let it run through your fingers in a very SLOW stream. NEVER STOP STIRRING.
- If mixture gets too thick and impossible to stir, add more boiling liquid.
- Once cornmeal has been added, stir in the small pieces of cream cheese (a little at a time) until cheese is completely melted and incorporated into the mixture.
- Continue cooking and stirring for about twenty minutes.
- If you don't cook the polenta long enough, you won't achieve the proper creamy consistency.
- Continue to add additional liquid as necessary.
- The proper consistency should be that of a thick Cream Of Wheat Cereal.
- Your spoon should be able to stand straight up when stuck in the middle and the mixture should pull away from the sides of the pot.
- Serve with pat of butter and enjoy!

SLOW COOKER PUMPKIN-PARMESAN POLENTA
This tangy polenta, inspired by the flavors of pumpkin ravioli, is as an easy side dish that can be made on the stovetop or in the slow cooker. For something a little lighter, omit the butter that cooks with the polenta and reduce the browned butter to 1/2 stick, or 4 tablespoons, or halve the recipe if you're not serving a crowd. At first, there will seem to be too much liquid, but the nice thing about cooking polenta in the slow cooker is the grain has time to hydrate, plumping and absorbing the water. When you whisk in the cream cheese at the very end, the texture should be glossy and creamy - loose enough to expand slowly when ladled onto a platter but not runny. If it's too liquidy for you, let it sit with the lid off for a few minutes and then whisk it more. If it's too thick, whisk in some boiling water.

Steps:
- In a 6- to 8-quart slow cooker, whisk together the polenta with 10 cups of water, then whisk in the pumpkin. Scatter in 4 tablespoons butter, cut into bits; the salt; a generous amount of pepper; the thyme sprig; 1 sprig of the sage; and 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg. Cook on low for 6 hours, whisking once or twice if possible. (This can hold very well on warm for several hours.)
- Break the cream cheese into pieces and drop them into the polenta; whisk to melt the cream cheese and combine. Remove and discard the herb sprigs. Stir in the remaining 1/2 teaspoon grated nutmeg, then stir in the grated Parmesan. Taste and add more salt if necessary.
- In a medium skillet, melt the remaining 8 tablespoons butter over medium-high heat. Pick the leaves from the remaining sage sprigs, and when the butter is melted, drop them in. Cook the butter and the sage, swirling the pan often, until the butter solids start to turn medium-brown and smell toasty, 3 to 5 minutes. (Don't walk away; butter goes from browned to burned in seconds.) Remove the pan from the heat immediately and swirl the browned butter-sage mixture into the polenta. Serve the polenta in a large platter or shallow bowl, topped with a bit more Parmesan and more nutmeg if desired.
- In a large pot, bring 10 cups of water to boil over high heat. Add the polenta in a steady steam while whisking constantly. Reduce the heat to low or medium-low. (You want the polenta-water mixture to be steaming hot, but not boiling.) Continue to whisk constantly for about 3 minutes, until the polenta and water have formed a smooth mixture. Whisk in the pumpkin, 4 tablespoons butter, the salt, a generous amount of pepper, the thyme sprig, 1 sage sprig and 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg. Once all the ingredients are combined, cover and cook for 40 minutes, whisking well every 10 minutes.
- Uncover the pot and cook for about 1 hour more, whisking every 10 minutes, until the polenta is smooth and tender, and the mixture has thickened and is creamy but not runny.
- Break the cream cheese into small pieces and drop them into the polenta; whisk to melt the cream cheese and combine. Remove and discard the herb sprigs. Stir in the remaining 1/2 teaspoon grated nutmeg and the grated Parmesan. Taste and add more salt if necessary.
- Melt the remaining 8 tablespoons of butter over medium-high heat in a medium skillet. Pick the leaves from the remaining sage sprigs and when the butter is melted, drop them in. Cook the butter and the sage, swirling the pan often, until the butter solids start to turn medium brown and smell toasty, 3 to 5 minutes. (Don't walk away; butter goes from browned to burned in seconds.) Remove the pan from the heat immediately and swirl the browned butter-sage mixture into the polenta. Serve the polenta in a large platter or shallow bowl, topped with a bit more Parmesan and more nutmeg if desired.
