Quick and Easy
This is easy to prepare, and tastes good. I serve it with a Romanian mushroom stew and similar dishes, and if there are any leftovers, I cut it in half, add some cheese, replace the top and bake until piping hot, as a filling snack!
we love it
This has become a staple in our house. Quick side, goes great with any kind of cheese mixed in at the end. Not made the cake but I'm sure it's good too
Revelation!
I’m a 40 something of Italian heritage, I’ve lived in Italy and in all that type I have had a deep suspicion of polenta. How can a foodstuff be both sweet and savoury? Free form and runny? It’s not natural. Plus on the rare occasion I’ve eaten it, it’s been revolting. This however is a revelation! Can’t believe all those wasted years missing on what has turned out to be the food of the gods. This is so delicious and moreish. My mind is completely blown.
Foolproof
Easy to prepare lump free polenta in no time. A regular purchase.
Perfect for cornbread
Love this fine grind. It works perfectly in American cornbread and I use some when I make creamed corn too
Great alternative to mash
I have this instead of white potatoes as mash, lovely as a side and with margarine or butter.
