Traditional Romanian Polenta

Directions

1. 1
   Bring water to a boil in a large pot. Add sea salt.
2. 2
   Take cornmeal by the handful and add to water slowly. Stir quickly to avoid lumps. Use a long handled wooden spoon (I used one with a hole in the middle which is more suitable for stirring liquids).
3. 3
   Cook for 20 minutes, stirring constantly. Polenta will become very thick while cooking. It is done when it comes away cleanly from the sides of the pot.
4. 4
   Pour polenta in a round shape form and let it cool for 15 minutes.
5. 5
   Cut cooled polenta into slices and serve!
