Polenta with Buttery Sage Mushrooms

Polenta is my latest obsession.     I had been hunting for corn meal for the past few weeks and wasn't able to find it until the other day. Since purchasing it, I'm pretty sure I've eaten polenta at least once every 3 days and I must admit, it's absolutely delicious!

Polenta is such a simple dish that literally tastes great on its own but tastes even better with an accompanying topping. It's a wonderfully blank canvas that can be customized to your own tastes.

Today's polenta recipe is one that I will be making again and again because the flavour combinations were literally perfect. Keeping the polenta itself simple allows the toppings to really shine, and that's what I've done with this recipe. I sauteed some mini button mushrooms with copious amounts of butter and fresh sage for a savoury topping to the polenta that is utterly delicious. Finished with grated parmesan for extra flavour and savouriness, this dish is beautiful to present and even more beautiful to eat!
