1
Prepare the Cooking Liquid
In a medium pot, combine 4 cups of water and 1 teaspoon of salt. Bring to a boil over high heat.
2
Cook the Grits
Once the water is boiling, slowly whisk in 1 cup of grits. Reduce the heat to low and cover the pot. Cook for about 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the grits are thick and creamy.
3
Add Milk and Cheese
When the grits are cooked, stir in 1 cup of milk and 1 cup of shredded Gouda cheese. Mix until the cheese is melted and fully incorporated.
4
Finish with Butter and Seasoning
Add 2 tablespoons of butter, 1 teaspoon of black pepper, and stir until the butter is melted and the mixture is creamy. Adjust seasoning to taste.
5
Garnish and Serve
Remove from heat and stir in 2 tablespoons of chopped green onions. Serve hot as a side dish or a comforting main dish.
