About Polenta bread
Polenta bread is a hearty, rustic loaf made primarily from polenta, a coarse-ground cornmeal, mixed with traditional bread-making ingredients like flour, water, yeast, and salt. Originating from Italian cuisine, polenta—a staple of Northern Italy—is known for its versatility and earthy flavor, which shines in this bread. The texture of polenta adds a subtle grainy bite and a golden hue to the loaf. Polenta bread is a source of carbohydrates and fiber, alongside small amounts of protein from the cornmeal. It is naturally gluten-free if made without wheat flour, making it a suitable option for those avoiding gluten. However, traditional recipes may include additional refined flour and baking additives that can reduce its overall nutritional density. Polenta bread has a satisfying, wholesome quality that pairs well with soups, salads, or as a base for spreads, making it a nutritious choice in moderation.
