Basic Polenta
Ingredients
- 5 cups water (or half water and half milk, for a richer taste)
- 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 fresh bay leaf
- 1 tablespoon kosher salt
- 1½ cups coarse yellow cornmeal
- Cooked polenta is delicious served as is, but if you would like to add additional flavor, all or just one or two of the following additions, whipped into the hot polenta, are great options:

- 1 cup grated Grana Padano
- ½ cup mascarpone
- ½ cup crumbled Gorgonzola
