Ingredients :
- 4 cups milk
- 1 cup water
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
- 1 cup old-fashioned grits
- 2 tablespoons butter
Directions :
- In a medium saucepan, bring the milk, water, and ¼ teaspoon salt to a boil over medium-high heat. Whisk in grits in a steady stream, constantly whisking to prevent clumps. Cover and reduce heat to medium-low. Cook, stirring constantly, scraping the bottom of the saucepan, until grits are thick and creamy, about 15 minutes.
- Remove from heat and stir in the butter. Season to taste with salt and freshly ground black pepper. (I like 1 teaspoon salt, ½ teaspoon pepper) Serve warm.
