After dehydrating and grinding fresh Ohio sweet corn with Weston products, we used some of our cornmeal yield to make parmesan polenta topped with peppers and spices. It's a simple, but very satisfying side dish.
Here's what you'll need:
-Ingredients-
1 cup
homemade cornmeal (click for our post on 'how to')
2 cups water
1/4 cup shredded parmesan
1/8 cup chopped red bell peppers
1/8 cup chopped jalapenos
1/8 cup chopped Hungarian sweet peppers
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon coriander
1 teaspoon cracked pepper
Bring water to a low boil, then stir in the cornmeal. Stir as often as possible until most of the water has evaporated from the cornmeal and you are left with a paste. Stir in parmesan while still hot. Once it has cooled, refrigerate for at least an hour. Remove and top with the peppers, then sprinkle with spices.
