Dry polenta, or corn grits as Americans call it, is coarsely ground maize that cooks into soft, creamy polenta in northern Italy and grits in the American South, or sets firm to be sliced and grilled. Dry, it’s about 370 kcal per 100 g, but it absorbs several times its weight in water, so a cooked bowl is far lighter until the butter and parmesan go in. It contains selenium and folate.
