Toss these in a salad or enjoy them as a snack. To vary the flavor, add cheeses or herbs. Spray your knife with cooking spray between cuts to slice the polenta easily. Ingredients:
3 1/2 cups water |
3/4 teaspoon sea salt |
3/4 cup whole grain yellow cornmeal |
1/2 cup half-and-half |
cooking spray |
Directions:
1. Bring water and salt to a boil in a large saucepan. Add cornmeal, stirring constantly with a whisk until cornmeal begins to absorb liquid (about 2 minutes). Reduce heat to low; cook 20 minutes, stirring frequently. Stir in half-and-half; cook 15 minutes, stirring frequently.
2. Spoon cornmeal mixture into an 8-inch square baking dish coated with cooking spray. Using a spatula coated with cooking spray, spread into an even layer. Chill, uncovered, 30 minutes or until completely cool.
3. Preheat oven to 400°.
4. Turn polenta out onto dry surface; cut into 1/2-inch cubes. Place polenta cubes on a baking sheet coated with cooking spray. Bake at 400° for 45 minutes, turning once with a spatula. Cool on a wire rack.
