Moretti Instant Taragna Polenta Lampo (Buckwheat & Corn) 500g

Taragna Polenta is yellow cornmeal mixed with coarse-ground buckwheat. It originates in Italy’s Alpine region like the Valtellina in Northern Lombardy. This quick-cooking version takes just 8 minutes.

Corn and buckwheat are air-dried in the Moretti barns and then stone-ground to produce this traditional polenta. Buckwheat thrives in the Italian Alps so it’s only natural to combine it with yellow cornmeal polenta. This quick-cooking version has been partially steamed, so it takes just 8 minutes to cook.  Served hard or soft, Taragna polenta makes a wonderful warm side dish that complements so many other flavors. It is perfect when served warm with butter, creamy Taleggio cheese and sage, or layered with a rich meat or sausage ragú.

The Moretti family has been growing, drying, & grinding corn since 1922 in the town of Bergamo.
