No d irections at all on how to prepare this. Googled it and all i got
were places where they want all your personal info before giving a
recipe. I'm looking for the easiest and simplest way, if there is such
a way. Thanks

Cornmeal is generally used for making things like cornbread, corn muffins,
and tortillas; have you looked fore recipes for them?
Is there anything you're specifically looking to cook?

If you are cooking "polenta", the general rule is 4 cups of water per 1 cup
of cornmeal. Salt to taste. about 30 to 40 minutes stovetop cooking
time, like rice. I also use butter or cheese to taste with my cornmeal.
You can also microwave it I was told. Boil the water first then add the
cornmeal for less than 10 minutes. I've never tried this method.
You gotta whisk it a lot at the beginning to get t eh texture right via
stovetop method. You can also chill it afterwards and eat it like a load
with your favourite topping ( use antipasto and crumbled pancetta and other
times I used leftover Mexican taco or fajita meats)

HI, thanks yeah, that was the word escaping me "Polenta"..that
microwave cooking sounds interesting, but like others have said, you
have to whisk it constantly so it doesn't lump...if that is the case,
how does one whisk it in a microwave oven? LOL
