Creamy Polenta
This creamy, soft polenta is a delicious side dish or entrée! Because I pulse the cornmeal in the blender before I cook it, it comes together in no time, so it's perfect for busy nights.

📝 Preparation Steps
1
In a blender, pulse the dry polenta to make the granules less coarse. This gives the polenta a creamy texture and helps it cook faster. Remove from the blender and run your hands through the dry polenta to make sure there aren’t any lumps.
2
In a medium pot, bring 3 cups of water to a high simmer. Slowly whisk in the polenta. Add 1 more cup of water and simmer for ⏱️ 15 minutes, stirring frequently. If your polenta is very thick, whisk in the remaining ½ cup water. The polenta should be creamy.
3
Turn off the heat and whisk in the olive oil and sea salt. Cover and let stand for ⏱️ 5 minutes. Season to taste and serve hot.
