4 servings
- 2 tbsp garlic-infused oil
- 1 tbsp fresh ginger, finely grated
- 3 cups water
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 1 cup coarse-ground polenta (not instant)
- ½ tsp fine sea salt, plus more to taste
- 2 tbsp white miso paste
- 1 tbsp unsalted butter
- ¼ cup parmesan cheese, finely grated
- ¼ tsp white pepper
- 3 scallions, green tops only, thinly sliced
- 1 tsp toasted sesame oil
- 1 tsp tamari
For serving
- 1 tsp toasted sesame seeds (optional)
- chili oil, for drizzling (optional)
Instructions
- 1
Heat the garlic-infused oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat until shimmering. Add the grated ginger and cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant and just beginning to turn golden at the edges, about 1 minute. Watch closely — ginger can scorch quickly at this stage.

Pour in the water and chicken broth and bring to a rolling boil over medium-high heat.
