Equipment

  • - Pot with Stainless Steel Lid: A durable pot often recommended for cooking grits due to its even heat distribution and ease of stirring.

  • - Kitchen Grits Cooker (Dutch Oven): Designed or ideal for making creamy stone ground grits, providing consistent results.

  • - High-Speed Blender with Variable Speeds: Ideal for grinding whole grain grits into a fine texture before cooking to maintain freshness.

Ingredients

  • 4 cups water

  • 4 cups whole milk

  • 2 cups white stone-ground grits

  • 1/2 cup heavy cream

  • 1/2 stick unsalted butter (optional), cut into pieces

  • 2 teaspoons kosher salt

Instructions

Instruction 1

Bring water and milk just to a simmer in a 4- to 5-quart heavy saucepan. Meanwhile, cover grits with water in a large bowl and whisk vigorously. Let stand 30 seconds, then skim any chaff that has floated to surface with a fine-mesh sieve. Drain grits well in a fine-mesh sieve and whisk into simmering milk mixture.

Instruction 2

Reduce heat to low and simmer grits, partially covered, stirring often with a heatproof rubber spatula, until grits are tender and thickened to the consistency of loose oatmeal, about 1 1/4hours (stir more toward end of cooking to avoid scorching). If grits become too thick before they are tender and creamy, thin with hot water (about 1/2 cup).

Instruction 3
