Ingredients
4 cups cold water
1 teaspoon coarse salt
1 cup polenta
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
Preparation
Bring the water to a boil in a medium saucepan; add salt. Stirring constantly, slowly add polenta, letting the grains pass through your fingers in a steady stream. Reduce heat; simmer, stirring constantly, until polenta is tender but not mushy, 30 to 35 minutes. Remove from heat, and stir in butter. Serve hot.
