Polenta Conzata

Soft polenta is particularly tasty served this simple way. You can use any strongtasting cheese to flavour the hot polenta, but in the Veneto they would use their local cheese, which is called Asiago. As polenta is relatively bland in taste, it can take on all kinds of different flavours. Make sure you keep the consistency quite soft, as it is served in shallow bowls and eaten with a spoon. You can use white or yellow polenta in this recipe - it is a matter of personal preference.
