Polenta may be seasoned with almost any pasta sauce.
3 1/2 cups | water | 900 mL | |
1 tsp | salt | 4 g | |
1 1/2 cup | cornmeal (polenta) | 200 g | |
3/4 cup | My Mother's Tomato Sauce | 190 mL | |
4 tbsp | Parmesan cheese, grated | 12 g |
Use 1 part flour to 4 parts water (or broth or milk), but increase the amount of liquid if the cornmeal contains coarser grains or if you want a softer result ("all'onda", i.e., polenta that has a ripple effect).
