Ingredients
3 Tablespoons unsalted butter 1/2 cup onions, finely chopped 4 cups gf chicken Stock 1 cup yellow cornmeal 2 tablespoons to 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese 1 teaspoon salt, or to taste 1-1/4 cups fresh corn kernels (from about 2 ears)

In a separate bowl, stir together remaining cup of water and cornmeal. Gradually stir into boiling water. Reduce heat to low, and cook, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon, until cornmeal is very thick and leaves the side of the pan as it is stirred, about 25 minutes.
