Soft Polenta with Parmesan and Black Pepper

• 2 quarts Chicken Stock (page 156)
• 1 teaspoon sea salt
• 2 cups polenta or yellow cornmeal
• 1/3 cup heavy cream
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
• 1 cup freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese
• 1 1/2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper

1. In a large pot, bring the chicken stock and salt to a boil.
2. Gradually whisk in the cornmeal in a slow, steady stream.
3. The liquid will be absorbed and the cornmeal will lock up; dont freak, just whisk through it.
4. Lower the heat and continue to whisk until the polenta is thick and smooth, about 20 minutes.
5. Add the cream and butter; continue to stir until incorporated, about 10 minutes.
6. Remove from the heat, fold in the Parmigiano and black pepper, and serve.
