Cooking Directions

1

Prepare the Water

In a medium saucepan, bring the water to a boil over high heat. Add the salt.

2

Add the Grits

Once the water is boiling, gradually whisk in the grits to avoid lumps.

3

Cook the Grits

Reduce the heat to low and cover the saucepan. Allow the grits to simmer for about 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally.

4

Add Butter and Cheese

Once the grits are thick and creamy, remove from heat and stir in the butter and cheddar cheese (if using) until melted and well combined.

5

Serve

Serve hot as a side dish or base for other toppings.
