HOW TO PREPARE POLENTA

To prepare a simple, fantastic polenta all your friends will talk about forever...

chicken stock (or preferred stock)
polenta (dry)
herbs (optional)

Use 4 parts seasoned stock to 1 cup dry-measured polenta.

Bring stock to rapid boil. Add polenta and stir vigorously with a wooden spoon (metal will bruise polenta) until stock is incorporated.

Turn fire to medium heat simmer for 25-30 minutes longer or to preferred doneness (about 20 minutes for al dente).

If desired, fresh thyme or other herbs may be stirred into the cooked polenta to heighten flavor.
