What is Polenta?

Creamy polenta provides a delicious base for many of your favorite meals. A traditional dish hailing from the French Alps, it was originally inherited from Northern Italian cuisine. Its tasty qualities quickly made it a staple of South Eastern France.

A favorite alternative to mashed potatoes or rice, the subtle nuances of corn polenta make it a versatile option. From a simple topping of grated Alpine cheese to braised short ribs, pot roast, or wild mushrooms. While it’s a great base, it can also be shaped and chilled, then sliced into and sauteed to create the favorite: fried polenta. Endlessly forgiving, pair with bold or delicate flavors.
