Chunky Tomato and Basil Ragu over Polenta

Polenta has so much potential in the kitchen, and our dear friend, author and TV chef Cristina Ferrare helped us embrace the endless possibilities of this versatile grain. Here, we paired a slow ragu of tomatoes with gently fried polenta disks. When the chill of autumn starts to arrive and you can still get your hands on a late-summer batch of tomatoes, this hearty dish is perfect to fuel the soul.
