Polenta

Recently I found one interesting thing, that I am fond of Italian kitchen. To my mind I could live in Italy and even do not care about national Lithuanian food, just maybe i could not live without potatoes :)
But I could exclude potatoes from my menu if I could eat Italian food every day! Just imagine: sweet tomatoes, pasta, dried ricotta, pesto, basil, polenta and PICA!!! and other amazing dishes.
But stop I was planning to write about my experience with Polenta and when I started to think about food you see what happened :) my minds took me somewhere away from the beginning idea.
Ok, Polenta. It is Italian food made from maize, more clear it is hominy(mush). You just put corns in the boiling water prepare hominy, then I put everything from the pot to backing form. the bottom should be covered with 1 -1.5cm high of hominy and wait when it cool down. After few hours you can cut this kind of cake :) into pieces and fry it on grill or in fat. I tried just to fry it on the pan and it was some kind of challenge. Difficult to explain it in English, but if you want to know what I am talking about you can try :) and you will understand what I mean.
But the taste of polenta is worth that sufferings :) the top of polenta is crispy and in the middle you reach soft hominy taste, it is divine!
You should try it at least once in your life!
