What Polenta Is Made Of?
Polenta is a traditional Italian dish made from boiled cornmeal. Cornmeal is a fine and coarse grind that comes from dried corn. The cornmeal is combined with water, salt, and sometimes milk, butter, or cheese to create a creamy and flavorful porridge-like dish. Polenta can be served on its own as a side dish or used as a base for various toppings like sautéed vegetables, meat ragù, or cheese.
