Although I have to admit, 5 minutes sounds much more attractive than 30 minutes of stirring. ;-) Katie — doh!

Still, that lovely marscapone would take even that to new heights! I can only get instant polenta here – done in about 5 minutes. Still, that lovely marscapone would take even that to new heights!

I have been wanting my polenta to be a bit creamier, and thought about using milk. But mascarpone is so much better!! Thank you for the great blog and the addition of mascarpone!

You were close, as you've now seen, osso bucco was the mystery date. ;-) Pam -- those sound like great additions as well. I think I'm making up for lost time--mascarpone was somehow only a recent discovery for me and I love using it in place of cream. Bellini -- that it does! Just a nice little twist in place of straight up cream. Toni -- mushrooms would be a great addition and I really wanted to add them. It might have been too strong for this particular dinner, but next time, this definitely gets mushrooms. Nina -- *drool* that would be an excellent thing to put right on top of this holler -- definitely worth a try one day! Its a simple side dish and good with saucey dishes as its a wonderful "sponge" so that you can enjoy every last bit of your plate. Nora -- it was! A nice, full profile. Plus, you get to dip into the mascarpone for a scoop during cooking. ;-) megan -- welcome! Thanks and I hope it goes well, let me know! Mansi -- same here! And thanks! :-) Anali -- thanks! Definitely a handy cheese to have, er, handy! ;-) Lydia — thanks! You were close, as you’ve now seen, osso bucco was the mystery date. ;-)

Something to book mark for winter when I will crave for such comforting foods. I’ve not tried polenta with mascarpone, it looks nice & creamy.
