POV Polenta Soup With Whatever You Want

You want to hear about that time I stupidly stuck a toilet plunger into the pasta machine at a fancy restaurant? It's in here!

This polenta soup is based on something I ate at Chez Panisse Cafe a few years go. It's either a porridgey soup or maybe it's a soupy porridge. either way, it's delicious. The basic are just 1/4 of polenta (or grits) simmered in a quart of stock. From there go wherever you want. I usually start by sautéing some onions, leeks, and/or garlic in olive oil at the start, then add some greens towards the end (kale is great). In this version I also add some pumpkin and garnish it with sautéd mushrooms.

Here's another variation of the recipe: https://www.seriouseats.com/2015/02/vegan-hearty-kale-polenta-polentina-recipe.html

PLEASE READ!

The coronavirus has hit many folks hard, including first responders and hospital workers, individuals and families who were already food insecure, and service industry employees who are, for the large part, currently out of a job.

My goal is to help fix both these problems in the best way I know how to contribute: organizing people, and cooking food.

These boxes go directly to the frontline workers and food insecure families who have been hit hardest by the coronavirus pandemic. They also allow me to hire back my kitchen team to cook and pack these meals (in a safe, clean way). So far we have served nearly 500 meals, and the number goes up every week.
