This is how my mother would make and serve it when I was a little kid. When polenta became so popular and was considered such a progressive and "new" culinary dish, I would just laugh at how silly it sounded listening to these youngsters (Im in my 50's) carry on so. It was filling, and cheap and Mother had 5 mouths to feed after my daddy died.

I was thinking about mush a few weeks ago. On Memorial day weekend hubby and I were in Lancaster PA. We found a new place to eat breakfast. They served it on their buffet. It was great. It reminded me of home.
