May 9, 2016 by Samuel Warde 1 Comment

Polenta is great because it’s tasty, filling, easy to make, and inexpensive. It’s basically just boiled cornmeal that you can turn into a dough/bread, that you can then use to make pies and tarts and all sorts of stuff. This is a simple polenta tart topped with asparagus, sauteed onions and garlic, basil, and tomatoes. Enjoy!
