Palenta is one of those old school recipes that you just don’t see around so much anymore. And grilled palenta in the summer with some marinara and pesto mink. I think the real problem is you got to stand at the stove pretty much the whole time stirring the palenta, making sure it’s not sticking. But what I love about palenta, you kind of get two meals. You get the creamy palenta, you can do a little sauce with it, maybe do a little bolognese over the creamy palenta. Then you can chill the rest of the palenta and do grilled palenta over a marinara. Add a little pesto. Perfect for the summer. And grilling them is so much easier than frying them. You just paint them with a little olive oil, wait till they stop sticking to the grill, flip them, and they’re good to go. And they’re sort of like pasta. They’re the perfect flavor absorbers. So, whatever your favorite sauces, make that and serve it with your palenta. And it’s these old school recipes you get to share with your friends and family and get everybody a little more excited about dinner, a little more excited about sharing food with you. So good or no?

I never knew you could make it into sheets like this, I always thought polenta was like grits!
In western PA they will pan fry it and serve it for breakfast, with butter and syrup. Locally called fried mush.
