Polenta with Gorgonzola

A web-exclusive recipe from Italian Cooking and Living

  • 1 1/4 cups milk
  • 3 tablespoons butter
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 12 ounces polenta
  • 10 ounces gorgonzola, cut into pieces
  • 2 ounces freshly grated Parmigiano Reggiano
  • In a heavy pot, bring 4 cups of water, the milk, butter, and salt to a boil. Pour the polenta into the boiling liquid in a thin, steady stream, whisking to prevent lumps from forming. Continue to cook over low heat for 1 hour and 15 minutes, stirring every few minutes. While the polenta is cooking, distribute 1/2 of the gorgonzola over the bottom of four oven-proof ramekins or custard cups. Preheat the oven to 400°. Remove the polenta from the heat, and stir in the Parmigiano. Distribute the polenta into each ramekin, and top with the remaining gorgonzola. Bake until the cheese is bubbly, about 5 minutes and serve immediately. Serves 4
