Move away from the fire and slowly add cornmeal to it while constantly stirring. Lower the heat and put the pot back on the stove. Cook for 10 minutes or check the package for cooking instructions. In the meantime, cover the small (12x14cm) tray with baking paper. When the polenta is finished cooking, add butter, stir one more time and pour it onto the tray. The polenta should be approx. 1 cm thick. Let it cool and thicken.<\/p><p><strong>Step 2:<\/strong><\/p><p>You can of course use a spiralizer to turn zucchini into zucchini noodles, but a julienne peeler or even a normal peeler work just as well! When using a vegetable peeler, you should use a knife to create these 3 mm thick julienne strips. Blanch for 30 seconds in salted boiling water, strain, and set aside. To make the basil foam,  bring the qual parts of milk and veggies stock to a boil and add fresh basil to it. Turn off the heat and let it sit while you focus on step 3. <\/p><h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 3: <\/h5><p>Take your taleggio cheese and cut it in a way that you and up with two 4 cm x 7 cm pieces that are about 1,5 cm thick. Do the same with the chilled and now firm polenta. Take a large plate and cover it with a flower. Add the cheese and polenta pieces and make sure that they are covered with flour from all sides.  Heat up a tablespoon of vegetable oil in a pan. When the oil is hot add the polenta slices first. Bake on each side for 3 minutes to get the sides to crisp up. In the meantime, toss the already cooked noodles in a pan with hot butter to warm them up again. When finished, add the cheese to the same pan as the polenta and fry on each side for 15 seconds to make it crispy and a bit melted. <\/p><h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Plating it<\/h5><p>Plate the polenta first, add the cheese on top and drizzle the honey over it! Place the zucchini noodles next to it and blend the basil sauce with one gram of Xanthan on high speed to create beautiful basilico foam. Serve with a glass of cold dry forest mead!<\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-image size-medium\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/jere-eu.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/taleggio-polenta-top-blog-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"Cheese and Mead Jere\" class=\"wp-image-20951\" srcset=\"https:\/\/jere-eu.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/taleggio-polenta-top-blog-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/jere-eu.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/taleggio-polenta-top-blog-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/jere-eu.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/taleggio-polenta-top-blog-12x12.jpg 12w, https:\/\/jere-eu.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/taleggio-polenta-top-blog-465x465.jpg 465w, https:\/\/jere-eu.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/taleggio-polenta-top-blog-100x100.jpg 100w, https:\/\/jere-eu.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/taleggio-polenta-top-blog.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/figure><h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the taste &#8230;<\/h4><p>We all know how good crispy polenta is &#8230; but Taleggio is the true start here!
