History of Polenta
In Italy, Polenta is a versatile alternative to pasta, bread, or rice, and is especially suited for meat dishes that have plenty of sauce. In northern Italy, it’s as popular as pasta in the south. Traditionally the first cooking step required stirring for 40-45 minutes in a copper kettle over a hot fire. Pre-cooked Polenta eliminates this tedious chore, while preserving Polenta’s ancient Italian heritage. There may be some water separation, this is normal.
