INSTRUCTIONS
POLENTA
SAUCE
(My Creation)
For polenta: (thanks to the Durham NC Independent for inspiration)
Combine and stir 1 C cornmeal, 1 C cold liquid, and salt in saucepan. Add
2-1/2 Old Mexican Inn - Orange Dip boiling water. Cook and stir the
mixture over high heat for two to three minutes. Cover and cook over very
low heat for 15-20 minutes, stirring frequently. Add more liquid if mixture
is too thick. Serve plain or add one of the following: Parmesan or
Gorgonzola cheese, sauted garlic, half-and-half, rosemary or other herbs,
tomato or garlic or anchovy paste, or butter.
Pour the cooked polenta into a loaf pan; it will become firm. When cool,
you can slice it easily.
For sauce: Brown sausage slices. Add sliced onions and saute until wilted.
Add tomatoes, cut up into large dice, with half of the juice from the can.
Add honey, vinegar and salt and pepper. Simmer and cook for 30 minutes.
Serve over warmed polenta slices.

A Message from our Provider:
“We need to discover all over again that worship is natural to the Christian, as it was to the godly Israelites who wrote the psalms, and that the habit of celebrating the greatness and graciousness of God yields an endless flow of thankfulness, joy, and zeal. #J.I. Packer”
