Method

Prepare the Grits

  1. 1

    Boil Water

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

  2. 2

    Add Grits and Salt

    Once the water is boiling, add 1 cup of grits and 1 tsp of salt. Stir well to prevent clumping.

  3. 3

    Cook Grits

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

Make the Cheese Mixture

  1. 4

    Add Butter and Cream

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

  2. 5

    Incorporate Cheese

    Gradually add 1 cup of shredded Gouda cheese to the grits, stirring until the cheese is melted and the mixture is smooth.

  3. 6

    Season

    Add 1 tsp of black pepper and 1 tsp of garlic powder to the cheese mixture. Stir well to combine.

Serve

  1. 7

    Garnish and Serve

    Spoon the gouda grits into serving bowls. Top with 2 tbs of chopped chives and a sprinkle of 1 tsp of smoked paprika for added flavor and presentation.
