Pre-cooked Polenta Taragna Flour

 Pre-cooked Polenta Taragna Flour

Polenta Taragna is a typical dish of the ancient tradition of the Valtellina valley situated in the very north of Italy which later spread to the rest of Northern Italy where the tradition of cooking plain polenta had already been well established. This special type of polenta is prepared mixing precooked corn flour with black buckwheat flour. Buckwheat has a special place among more common cereal types as it distinguishes itself for high biological value of its protein content. The proteins found in buckwheat are a source of no fewer than 8 essential amino acids, where the quantity of each and single amino acid is optimally proportioned to the rest of the group. In addition, it is a good source of fibre and minerals, especially of manganese and magnesium. It also fills you up very quickly, a trait very common in cereal that contains kernel of corn. It will take you just 8 minutes to make our PRE-COOKED POLENTA TARAGNA, so quick and easy to prepare. It is a simple dish that can accompany meat or cheese, ready in few minutes only!
