Cornmeal Organic (fine grind)

Learn More About the Product

Also called corn flour and, in Northern Italy, when boiled called polenta, cornmeal is used for everything from baby food, tortillas and corn bread. I use it most underneath my pizza dough on the counter, when rolling it, and on my pizza peel to get the finished pizza to roll smoothly off and onto the pizza stone.

Cooking Instructions
To make a basic polenta, use 4-5 cups of water (depending on desired texture) to 1 cup of cornmeal. Bring the water minus one cup to a boil in a saucepan. While your water comes to a boil, mix the reserved cup of room temp water with your cornmeal and a pinch of salt. Slowly add the cornmeal mixture to the boiling water while stirring; continue to stir as mixture thickens, or about 2-3 minutes. Turn heat to low and cook for up to 45 minutes, stirring occasionally. You can add a bit of water to thin it out as needed, if mixture is thickening up before tasting totally done. Add a few tablespoons of butter or olive oil, freshly grated parmesan if desired, stir well, and serve immediately.
