Hi Guys. Thought I'd try to sneak on. Love polenta & gnocchi, as well. Polenta was very hard to find when we lived in Texas, which I thought was odd.



Hope everyone is doing well today.

I never thought polenta was known even in US.... or I just believed you might call it with a different name lol Posted Image 


Max.  i think it has become more popular in the last counple of decades. With all the food network shows etc.. 

We also have something very similar here.. but essentially the same thing.. 

I grew up exposed to foods from everywhere, My father was a huge foody and an amazing cook.. I was the only one of my siblings that also loved to cook and good at it   :)

My post was for Bri193.. because I am not really sure in South Italy they have all these versions..
Hey Bri... let me know if you come here to the north one of these days... I'll bring you to eat some typical food in Valtellina :P

I am happy if it stays the same. Going back is not something I want or wish to have.  I'd just do the same stupid things I did the first time    lol
