this is the last installment of the polenta recipes as found in The Frugal Gourmet Cooks Italian. this is a every interesting and informative book!! so if you love true "Italian" cooking i suggest getting this cookbook:> Heat a 10 to 12-quart heavy-bottom stainless steel kettle, and add the oil, garlic, onion, celery, and carrot. Saute until the onion is transparent, about 10 to 15 minutes. Add the panchetta and saute 5 more minutes. Add the parsley, chicken stock, white wine, and tomato paste.
