In a large pot, bring the 4 cups water and 1 teaspoon salt to a rolling boil over high heat.
Step 2
Slowly whisk in the 1 cup cornmeal, stirring constantly to prevent lumps. Reduce heat to low.
Step 3
Cook, stirring frequently with a wooden spoon, until the polenta is thick and pulls away from the sides, about 15-20 minutes.
Step 4
Remove from heat and stir in the 2 tablespoons butter until melted and creamy. Serve hot.
