Polenta is steeped in limed water to maximize digestibility and nutrient availability, then cooked until thick and creamy over low heat and enriched with Straus milk and butter. We then add sauteed spinach, Sierra Nevada Graziers cheddar cheese, and herbs. Simple, satisfying, and versatile, polenta can be eaten as a side dish with meat, or as a meal of its own with grated cheese on top. Try it with this week's Marinara Sauce with Fresh Basil.
