Polenta Taragna with Taleggio and Radicchio Recipe

Whisk polenta and buckwheat flour together in a bowl.

Combine water broth and salt in a large pot and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Sprinkle polenta mixture into the water little by little whisking constantly to avoid clumping. Immediately reduce heat and simmer stirring often to avoid scorching for about 15 minutes.

Set aside 4 Taleggio cheese cubes. Add butter and remaining Taleggio cheese to the polenta stirring often until melted and the polenta is thick and creamy like grits about 10 minutes.

Meanwhile heat a griddle or skillet over medium heat. Remove the outer leaves of the radicchio and cut the head into 4 equal wedges. Drizzle oil onto the griddle and cook the radicchio on each side until heated and slightly charred and just beginning to wilt.

Distribute equal portions of polenta onto plates and top with a cube of Taleggio and a wedge of grilled radicchio. Serve immediately.
