I love it

Cook polenta according to pkg directions (my go to is Bob’s Red Mill).
I always add milk or half n half as part of the liquid amount.
Crisp up prosciutto slices
Top the polenta with butter, Parmesan, prosciutto and green onion. S&P to taste.

It is delicious. The salty bacon is a great addition to the more bland grits. The parm gives that umami flavor and a little funk and the green onion gives it bright freshness.
Mmmmmm!

I had it as my meal this evening but this would be fine for breakfasts (add an egg or not) or as a side dish. It’s pretty darn easy too.

1. When I lived in Venice/Venezia, we ate it (1) with blue cheese ("dolce") or (2)with

ragu (Bolognese sauce). But the leftovers were the best! Sliced and put in the toaster: OMG how delish! FWIW our polenta was ALWAYS made with white corn.

2. I like it fried

In butter. Chill it and slice and fry in butter. Have with skiced tomato.

3. That's my favorite way, too.

The contrast of the crisp exterior and soft interior is great. And it's especially good with a hearty ragu

4. That sounds amazing!

I love polenta even with just butter and cheese. The bacon and green onions would certainly make it even better!
