We deliver a double dose of sweet corn flavor in this almost effortless oven-baked polenta. Once the polenta is done, we fire up the broiler and char corn kernels to make a topping that echoes the flavor of the polenta. Plump, tender kernels cut from fresh cobs are best, but frozen works, too. If using frozen, before broiling, be sure to thaw it and pat it dry. Salty, creamy cheese and bold, pungent fresh oregano complement the natural sugars of the corn.

Polenta is fantastic
I've made this twice, and the second time I doubled the amount of Polenta. Even used the polenta recipe from here for other dishes. I reduced the amount of salt, just because I don't like salty dishes.

Outstanding Polenta
This was excellent. I did not have the cheese or cheese alternatives that MS recommended, so opted for Gouda for its creaminess. Everything went smoothly and tasted great!
