I like to prepare thicker, then you put half in a big bowl, and put some cheese in it, and then put the other half and then a home made tomato sauce and then more cheese. The cheese melts, it's delicious. And when you cut it has the texture of a pie. Now I feel like making some

Ok now that sounds so good!

I'll try to compose a recipe and send it to you, k?

something like this:

That is cornbread not polenta!

Polenta is like mushy cornbread, usually served with cheese in it - yum or like Nessa said as 'fries'.

Well if you call cornbread maybe here it is.

I use polenta mix, mixed with chicken broth (homemade, like you cook chicken and then use the broth) or you can mix with water and some salt, in a pan, stirring until it gets very think. Then I do like I said, put half in a bowl, while still hot, then add lots of cheese, then put the other half, then cheese and tomato sauce (also homemade - tomatoes, onions, garlic, oregano and basil). After it gets colder it has a texture similar to that one above, it isn't thick like a bread, it's like the texture of the cheese of a cheesecake you know?

Same thing really except sometimes American cornbread is a bit sweet & usually served hot with butter.

I think I would like polenta a lot...it definitely resembles cornbread.

I should try and make some...can you get polenta mix at the store?

Thanks again! I will definitely try that out soon.

We have cornbread in Brazil but it's sweet, like a corn cake.

I never tried to find polenta, maybe I'll try tomorrow. I'll see if maybe in the mexican part of the supermarket I can find polenta mix. That's where I find most things that resembles brazilian food, that and on the german part also.

[Nessa 23]

So as it turns out I don't like polenta Which is weird bc I LOVE corn. I think it's the texture..

I forgot to comment on this, you don't like it because of the taste or because it looks nasty and you assimilate to something yucky?

Like my husband, if he sees anything green or that resembles vegetables he says he doesn't like, even though he refuses to try it

Try the Italian section for polenta!

[Nessa 23]

Which supermarket do they have a italian section? I can find asian, mexican and german here at the commissary, then at Walmart I remember mexican, not sure if they have another one, well, I never really tried to find I was after the mexican only

It wasn't the taste or appearance...it was the texture. It was like not smooth and kind of lumpy and gritty. I'm weird like that-if it feels funny I can't eat it.

knock knock, anyone? am I the only one still working?
