Steps:
- Lightly oil an 11 by 7-inch baking dish. Transfer the hot polenta to the prepared baking dish, spreading evenly to 3/4-inch thick. Refrigerate until cold and firm, about 2 hours.
- Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F.
- Cut the polenta into 2 by 1-inch pieces. Heat the oil in a heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Working in batches, fry the polenta pieces until golden brown on all sides, about 3 minutes per side. Using tongs, transfer the polenta pieces to paper towels and drain. Place the polenta pieces on a baking sheet and keep warm in the oven while cooking the remaining batches.
- Transfer the polenta pieces to a serving platter. Sprinkle the polenta with the Parmesan cheese and salt. Serve, passing the marinara sauce alongside.
- Bring 6 cups of water to a boil in a heavy large saucepan. Add 2 teaspoons of salt. Gradually whisk in the cornmeal. Reduce the heat to low and cook until the mixture thickens and the cornmeal is tender, stirring often, about 15 minutes. Turn off the heat. Add the butter, and stir until melted.

Steps:
- Bring four-and-a-half cups of stock to a simmer in a heavy saucepan. Add the cornmeal very slowly, stirring constantly. The easiest way to add the cornmeal is to take handfuls of it and allow a very fine stream to pour from your slightly open fist. When all the cornmeal has been added continue cooking the mixture, stirring from time to time, for another 15 minutes.
- Season to taste with salt and pepper and stir in the butter and herbs. Serve at once. The polenta can be held for up to about 20 minutes if you add the additional half-cup of stock and cover it. Reheat it gently, stirring constantly, then serve.
- Serve with a generous dusting of the Parmesan cheese.

POLENTA TRIANGLES
Authentic polenta (not the instant variety),an Italian cook's version of cornmeal, is ideal for making this dish. Ordinary supermarket cornmeal will do, but look for the "stome ground" variety, which is best for both flavor and texture. Also be sure to use top-quality Parmesan cheese, such as Parmigiano-Reggiano. This is a dish where it's important to plan ahead. Start the polenta at least 2 hours before serving because the prepared polenta needs to firm up in the refrigerator before being browned in a skillet. Recipe is courtesy Paula Mitchell, culinary instructor, cookbook author. Cool time not included in prep or cooking time.
