1 1/2
cup
(220 g) yellow or white cornmeal for polenta, preferably stone-ground
1/4
cup
(60 g) unsalted butter

Instructions
Bring the water to a boil in a heavy saucepan. Add about a teaspoon of salt.
Very gradually add the polenta by taking handfuls of it and letting it fall in a thin stream into the pan.
Stir it constantly. After all the polenta has been added, continue to cook it, stirring for 10 minutes.
Add the butter, season to taste with salt, and serve.
