Lippy has it right! The secret to lump free polenta is adding the corn meal to the liquid ( I use one third water ,one third milk ,one third broth) before you bring it to a simmer. While stirring is still a necessity, I wait until it slightly thickens then add butter and cheese while doing that. Reduce the heat ,let it cook 10 to 15 minutes. Perfect lump free polenta..Ta Da..

fried cod, mac and cheese and pickled beets...my friday go to old catholic upbringing meal forever....

a less work method is to combine rice eggs sugar some vanilla and raisins in a glass baking dish and bake in a water bath at 325 for one hour

i came from a mixed jewish sicilian family. born and raised in Brooklyn. Food was an important life factor. I raised 3 children through college to adulthood and independence( more or less) They were raised eating home cooked meals six days a week. I worked graveyard shifts for 20 plus years which allowed me to get up in the afternoon and prepare meals. Through the years I fed my own and so many other kids, their friends, whose parents worked conventional hours and never cooked meals. That being the case my grown children all cook for themselves using fresh produce and cheap cuts of meat pouyltry and fish, the way I did for all those years. The notion of cutting back really has not affected us. We have always strived to make the most from the least. Shopping the marked down sections of local grocery stores and using rice grains beans and pastas to stretch meals is nothing new. In fact because of slow sales there seems to be so much more high end products marked down 50 per cent or more available. The stigma of mark downs is something to get over. As I have repeatedly said, five minutes before the clerk marked it down, it was on the shelf for full price and most would have paid that. We have always eaten well above the levels of others and in this money tight economy will to continue to.
