Polenta is the frequent flier of the cornmeal set. Just about anywhere there’s an airport, you’re likely to find some version of this staple. Hungarians call it puliszka, the Turks call it mamalika, and us Americans—well, we just call it grits. Polenta is fabulous to work with because it morphs itself amiably into so many settings. I’ve seen it prepared with tomato sauce, different cheeses, various oils, garlicky greens, you name it. This version is somewhat similar to oatmeal (think thin oatmeal, not the stuff that doubles as wallpaper paste) using Magic Mineral Broth to add taste and nutritional value far beyond what you’d get with plain water.
