Rosemarypolenta Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Combine the mustard, vinegar, chopped rosemary and 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper in a bowl; brush all over the pork. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large nonstick ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Add the pork and cook until browned on all sides, about 5 minutes. Transfer the skillet to the oven and roast until a thermometer registers 145 degrees F, about 15 minutes. Transfer the pork to a cutting board and let rest.
• Wipe out the skillet. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil, the garlic and red pepper flakes; cook over medium heat, 2 minutes. Add the broccoli, 1/4 cup water and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Cover; cook 5 minutes.
• Bring 3 cups water, the milk, rosemary sprig and 1/4 teaspoon salt to a boil in a saucepan over medium heat; discard the rosemary. Whisk in the polenta and cook, whisking, until thickened, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the parmesan. Slice the pork and serve with the broccoli and polenta.

Steps:

• Butter 9-inch-diameter glass pie dish. Bring broth to boil in heavy medium saucepan. Gradually whisk in corn meal. Reduce heat to medium and whisk constantly until mixture thickens, about 6 minutes. Remove from heat. Add cheese and 1 1/2 tablespoons butter; stir until cheese melts. Stir in chopped walnuts and rosemary. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer polenta to prepared dish; using buttered knife, spread evenly. Cool until polenta is firm, at least 1 hour.
• Line baking sheet with foil. Cut polenta into 8 wedges. Transfer wedges, bottom side up, to prepared sheet. Dot wedges with 1 1/2 tablespoons butter. Place 1 walnut half in center of each wedge. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and chill.)
• Preheat oven to 350?F. Bake polenta until heated through, about 12 minutes.

Steps:

• Bring the stock to a boil in a large, heavy saucepan over high heat. Whisk in the polenta in a steady stream, then decrease the heat to medium. Cook, stirring with a wooden spoon, more constantly than you would think possible, until the polenta begins to thicken, approximately 10 minutes. (Keep stirring; otherwise the polenta will boil up and may splatter on your hand.)
• Add the cheese and rosemary and stir for approximately 2 minutes. Stir in the butter, season with salt and pepper to taste and serve. It keeps well on the stove, though it thickens as it rests. If cooking before the chops are done, which is a smart idea, either remove from the heat at a thinner consistency or add a little more stock later.

Steps:

• Heat the butter and olive oil in a large saucepan. Add the garlic, red pepper flakes, rosemary, salt, and pepper and saute for 1 minute. Add the chicken stock(or veg.), half-and-half, and milk and bring to a boil. Remove from the heat and slowly sprinkle the cornmeal into the hot milk while stirring constantly with a whisk. Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, for a few minutes, until thickened and bubbly.
• Off the heat, stir in the Parmesan.
• Pour into a 9x13x2" pan, smooth the top, and refrigerate until firm and cold.
• Cut the chilled polenta into 12 squares, like you would with brownies. Lift each one out with a spatula and cut diagonally into triangles.
• Dust each triangle lightly in flour.
• Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil and 1 tablespoon butter in a large saute pan and cook the triangles in batches over medium heat for 3 to 5 minutes, turning once, until browned on the outside and heated inside. Add more butter and oil, as needed. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Cake: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Brush a 10-inch Bundt pan with 1 tablespoon butter. Sprinkle with 2 teaspoons rosemary and 2 tablespoons polenta; shake to coat.
• Whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, and remaining 3/4 cup polenta and 4 teaspoons rosemary. In another bowl, whisk together oil, eggs, yolks, and vanilla.
• Beat remaining 1/2 cup butter and the sugar on medium until pale and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Slowly beat in egg mixture until just combined. With mixer on low, add flour mixture in 3 batches; beat until just combined.
• Pour batter into pan. Bake until golden and a toothpick comes out clean, 35 to 40 minutes. Let cool in pan 15 minutes, then turn out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
• Glaze: Whisk together all ingredients until smooth. Drizzle glaze over cake. Cut into wedges; serve.
