====== Creamy Polenta ======

====== Ingredients ======

  * 1 cup cornmeal
  * 4 cups cold water
  * 1 teaspoon fine salt
  * 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
  * 1/2 cup freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese


====== Instructions ======
 
  - Combine the cornmeal, water, and salt in a Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed saucepan. 
  - Set the pan over medium-high heat and bring to a simmer, stirring to keep the polenta from forming lumps. 
  - Reduce the heat to low and cook, stirring often to prevent the polenta from sticking to the bottom of the pot, about 45 minutes.
  - When the polenta is done, taste and season with more salt if needed. 
  - Remove the pot from the heat and stir in the butter and Parmigiano cheese. 
  - Serve immediately.
