Grits

[Cat Herder]

Funny you should say that about me using maple syrup. When I told my dd what I'd done, she said 'Mooommm, why would you put maple syrup on grits?' So I said, why not? ::
So, grits isn't just like a hot cereal? I put syrup on oatmeal and that's pretty good. See, ya learn something new every day.

:::: Cook them down for about 20-25 minutes with salt, pepper and butter. Stir with a whisk to keep from clumping. Be careful, they will splatter and stick to cause serious burns if your heat is too high. Never cook grits in the buff.

They are amazing topped with chopped bacon, crumbled sausage or shredded cheese. Think meat and potatoes, not cereal.

I grew up with grits, so hearing someone say, so it's like oatmeal but just grits made me spit out my water. ::

My favorite way to cook grits is with seasoned salt, onion powder and american cheese, yes American cheese. It's the BEST breakfast junk food! My dad would always make cheesy grits, scrambled eggs, bacon, and toast with strawberry jam. mmmm

There we go! Now I'm hungry for grits or polenta. Both are similar but have subtle differences. I found Scot Conant's polenta with mushrooms recipe & it has become a regular recipe when I want really do a serious bit of cooking.
