- These simple ingredients bake into a luxuriously rich custard to top with tomato sauce or possibly to serve with grilled meats.
- In a heavy, medium saucepan over moderate heat, combine water and lowfat milk with salt and 2 Tbsp. of the butter. Bring to a boil, then gradually whisk in polenta and flour. Continue whisking till mix thickens slightly, then switch to a wooden spoon and cook, stirring constantly, till mix is smooth and thick, about 20 min more. Stir in 6 Tbsp. more butter and cook an additional 5 min, stirring often.
- Remove polenta from heat and stir in half the cheese and the 2 egg yolks.
- Pour polenta into a buttered 9-by-11-by-1 1/2 inch roasting pan. Cold.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Slice cooled polenta into squares or possibly diamonds, using a knife, or possibly into rounds or possibly other shapes, using a biscuit or possibly cookie cutter.
- Place polenta on buttered baking sheet. Dot with remaining butter; sprinkle with remaining parmesan. Bake 15 min; turn heat up to 450 degrees and bake till lightly browned.
