    mad max beyond eggdome, olive oil and sea salt.
    I make my polenta from corn meal, cool, season and put it directly on the cast iron grill - direct to crisp up the outside. Its already cooked before you put it on the grill, so its just for texture.

    Topo Gigio,
    you know, i've got a thing of sea salt that i haven't used yet cause i didn't quite know what to use it on . . .[p]THANKS. .. the polenta i have is pre-made (comes in a tube), so i'll slice it about an inch thick, and probably go that route ...

    mad max beyond eggdome,[p]This is too wierd. I did an experiment something like that last night. I basically topped the polenta like a pizza and broiled it. The egg experiment is set for later today. Will post results Sunday.

    dhuffjr,[p]Polenta is an italian version of what I grew up with, called "cornmeal mush". Cornmeal cooked with water, which becomes a porridge. This could be eaten as is for breakfast, or- what I grew up with- chilled in a loaf pan, sliced and fried, served with butter and maple syrup (mmmm...)[p]Polenta, on the other hand, is more typically a lunch/dinner side, often with cheese or herbs, served soft (direct from cooking) as a starch (think yellow mashed potatoes) or chilled to solidify and sliced before broiling/sauteeing/grilling to reheat.[p]If you haven't tried it, do so- you're in for a treat!
