Boil some well salted corn polenta and let it cool in a square rectangular
container in order to obtain a square or rectangular block of it. At the
party, justs lice it in 1/5 inch thick slices and then broil them. They take
about 5 minutes per side if well close to a good broiler, so when you're
broiling the last minute of the last side top them: with thin slices of the
cheese you prefer or sliced cold-cuts or add some mushroom and cheese or
sauces of your choices, maybe stealing some sauces from the dip-lovers at
the party. I love to wrap them in bacon, this can also be done after
removing the polenta slices from the oven, since theyr heat will make the
bacon transparent (I use pancetta). One can just dip the slices in a cheese
or tomato dip, too.
