[Dead_Lioness]

hahaha!


mmmm grits are awesome if done right!
The secret is in the stirring!!


I like mine sweet, I put brown sugar, cinnamon, and a dub of nutmeg

NEVER INSTANT!!!


discuss.

 

[Chromatose]

That doesn't help me at all!

 

[Dead_Lioness]

oh, and i dont add that 'extra chunk of butter' on top when the grits are ready... yuk.
stir in the milk and butter slowly and keep stirring- or else it'll have chunks.

 

[Chromatose]

ok this is more like what I NEED TO KNOW.

in all the grits photos it has a square of butter melting on top, but then again, black people are fat.

 

[Dead_Lioness]

ok my way:


depends on how much you make: Let's say one cup.


2 cups of water,
a little bit more than a cup of milk
depends if you want it sweet of salty: 1tsp of either sugar or salt
2 tbs butter


boil water and milk
stir in salt or sugar
slowly stir in grits
stir constantly until grits are well mixed
bring everything to a boil
cover pot and cook on low heat for about 25-30 minutes
The texture needs to be JUST RIGHT - creamy and flowing.
add more water if needed... and when its done:
stir in the butter and serve

ta da!!!

exactly

that extra butter is not needed

 

[Chromatose]

I don't even know what form it comes in, is it like corn meal?

 

[Dead_Lioness]

no, corn meal is fine, while grits are coarsely ground dried corn

 

[Chromatose]

neat!

 

[Dead_Lioness]

...and that's a shame.
