Cakes Italian cuisine

Polenta has been such a hot topic lately, I am thrilled to have so many reasons to use it. I love that it is a versatile ingredient that can be used in both sweet and savory dishes for breakfast, lunch or dinner! It is also neat how there is so much texture play. In these bite sized polenta cakes, I cooked the polenta until firm and then cut out the shapes with flower cookie cutters. This is a fun appetizer for holiday get togethers. Holiday themed cookie cutters would be fun too, stars, xmas tree's, snowmen etc.....You can also make larger shapes and use as a bed under a lean protein, topped with the mushroom ragú. Pair with steamed veggies or a side salad.
