    POLENTA PIZZA CRUST
    4 C. water
    1 3/4 t. salt
    2 T. extra virgin olive oil
    1 C. whole-grain cornmeal
    1. Combine water, salt, and oil in a 4-quart saucepan and bring to a full boil.
    2. Pour cornmeal into boiling water, stirring constantly with a wire whisk.
    3. Turn heat down to medium-high and cook, stirring frequently for about 5 or 6 minutes. Mixture will thicken to the consistency of cooked oatmeal.
    4. Pour cooked polenta onto a lightly oiled pizza pan or a rectangular baking pan, using the back of a large spoon to spread outward. The crust should be about 3/8" (about 1 cm) thick. Set aside. At this point the crust can be wrapped in plastic film and refrigerated if serving the next day. I like to stick under the broiler until slightly brown.
    CORE PIZZA SAUCE
    9 large Roma tomatoes (Italian plum tomatoes)
    8 fresh basil leaves or 1/2 t. dried basil
    2 T. extra virgin olive oil
    5 cloves garlic, whole
    3/4 t. salt
    Freshly ground black pepper
    1. Whirl the sauce ingredients together in a food processor until pureed.
    2. Spread generously over crust, covering the surface completely.
    3. Refrigerate remaining sauce for future use.
