View ProfileCozy up to a warm bowl of this comforting vegetarian dish that puts mushrooms in the spotlight. Creamy, dreamy polenta is made with porcini mushroom broth for umami and Grana Padano cheese for salty richness. The polenta is paired with mixed mushrooms like cremini and shiitake that are sautéed and cooked down until they resemble an Italian ragu. A dollop of porcini mushroom-infused cream on top is the finishing touch on this rich, deeply savory meal.
