Grits Base

Method

Prepare Grits

  1. 1

    Boil Water

    In a large pot, bring 4 cups of water to a rolling boil over high heat.

  2. 2

    Add Grits and Salt

    Once the water is boiling, slowly whisk in 1 cup of Anson Mills Grits and 1 tsp of salt to prevent clumping.

  3. 3

    Simmer Grits

    Reduce the heat to low and cover the pot. Let the grits simmer for about 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally, until thick and creamy.

Finish the Grits

  1. 4

    Stir in Cream and Butter

    Once the grits are cooked, stir in 1 cup of heavy cream and 2 tbs of unsalted butter until fully melted and well incorporated.

  2. 5

    Add Cheese and Seasoning

    Mix in 1 cup of grated Parmesan cheese and 1 tsp of black pepper, stirring continuously until the cheese is melted and the mixture is creamy.

  3. 6

    Garnish and Serve

    Remove the pot from heat. Stir in 2 tbs of chopped fresh chives. Serve the creamy grits hot, garnished with additional chives if desired.
